I have been reading alot and i have noticed that a good suspension setup is going with the 05 350z shocks, well i know i can run the 350z shocks but could i take it a step farther and run 350z shocks with some maybe tanabe springs? or any other lowering spring, I just want a affordable shocks/spring setup. D-Specs and lowering springs are about the same price as tein basics and im just seeing if i can do something good for cheaper. Im not worried about like track handling or anything, I just heard its bad to to run lowering springs on the g sedan on the stock shocks, so i figured 350z's are safe on stock shocks with springs.... Let me kow what you guys think I just want more than a 1.5 in drop

 

If money is the issue. i would wait until i have enought to change the complete setup Shocks//Struts//Springs. I called Stillen and they offered me Koni Adjustable Shocks//Struts and Eibach springs for 1100 Free Shipping. But i believe that was about a 1.2 drop. Eibach has another sport springs that makes it like 1.5 or something in the ball park of your preference. To Some it up i would change n everything and wait until i have the money!!

 

Ok thats good with the stillen kit, but dosent the tein basic coilover have all that for less?

 

I have a set of sedan S Techs and 06 Z struts and shocks I'll sell you for $250 shipped. The springs are also already installed on the fronts which would save you lots of time on the install.

PM me if you're interested. I had a local buyer lined up but he flaked. Here are a couple of pics with that set up on my car:






Gave me a good, manageable drop and rode well.

 

IMO I wouldnt waste the money on OEM shocks, get some that will work with the set-up you want to run.

 

There are already several threads in which this question could have been asked.
