This is one that isn't in the compilation.

Anyone running this set up? They will drop the sedan 1.7 and 1.4 Just under what the sedan S-techs will drop it.

How do you think this will look?

i have currently 06 z shocks on z s techs, drop is bomb. rear sits lower than the front, wish the front was a bit lower, but i can get a finger and a half in the front and just short a finger in the rear

Ok, that's pretty similar to what I plan on running. 275 might need some rolled fenders.

Where did you hear that? They are the same spring rates as the sedan S-techs, so I doubt they can be really bad??

I run sportlines with 05 z struts/shocks. My car is low and it rides great! Good cheap alternative to expensive d-specs.

the shocks aren't really going to change the drop...

what was the total drop...about 1.5" right?

1.7" in the front and 1.4" in the rear.

I think I'm just going to install the fronts to try and level it out.

I like those wheels on your sedan bb350z. I am going to drop my sedan with Tein s-techs. Did you have to use toe bolts to pull the toe in? I m going to get OEM coupe 19's on mine.
