Suspension?

So whats type of suspension can I get to drop my car about an inch and a half? I just recently got myself a 04 g35 coupe and I can't wait to drop it I want something reasonably cheap that will last if thats even possible lol Its hard paying off my student loan and buying car parts at the same time

Spring and struts have lasted much longer for me, and they cost half what decent coilovers cost as far as overall costs go. When they go out, you only need to repurchase the struts and shocks instead of the entire assembly. Z S-Techs and Tokico D-Specs have been great for me, but I'm sure a revised Z suspension would work well too.

But strut and shock is almost the whole assembly....

Yea they are expected to last longer but its a hit or miss with the height. You might always have that itch to go LOWER or higher.

Plenum spacers

Just wondering what the difference between these 3 are? Are these the spacers I am looking for? I'm living in AZ where its hot most the time but gets cold during winter.

Where can I purchase a JDM Double Din?

I've been looking to buy a JDM double din kit for an 03 coupe. I saw a couple on ebay for 350. Just want to see if thats about the price I'm going to pay unless I'm buying it used from someone. Any recommendations for other sites would be helpful too. Thanks in advance.

Thumbs up Wheels

I'm looking to put new wheels on my G35 coupe and want to know the right stance and how to stagger them. What is the best size if I want around 20 in wheels. What is a good website or online shop to get them from? Vossen's are so hot, but way too much money, any ideas on quality for the money. I'm thinking matte black.

IIRC (And I am by no means certain of this) the headlights, grill, and bumper are unique designs on 05/06 vs 03/04. In other words, they will fit but you will have to swap your bumper and grill to the 05/06 as well..

Can somebody confirm?

I think I'll post that answer in my Sig. It gets asked at least once a week right?

Bumper, Hood, Grill, Headlights are different on the 05/06. All Will fit ONLY IF YOU INSTALL ALL OF THEM AT THE SAME TIME.

You can't just install one part. (headlights).

We make some pretty affordable 19s that look good on G35 coupes. I know you mentioned you would want 20s but if you were also considering 19s check out our stuff.
