Lowered and loving it
Finally got my struts & shocks in and lowered my car. Very happy with the combination i went with.
Tokico D-Spec Eibach Pro-Kit SPC Rear camber arms & toes bolts Installed the springs and struts last week with only one issue; driver side front strut bolt to control arm was stripped so had drive around with 3 side lowered and one on factory struts for a day had the stripped bolt taken off by the dealer and gave me a free replacement. Installed Camber arms and bolts this morning got the alignment done after. Car drives like a champ and smiles all around from me and the car Before http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2254/...8d1cace9_b.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2328/...ff6f9c4a_b.jpg After http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2069/...96418526_b.jpg http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5141/...203bc08f_b.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2425/...8f1205a0_b.jpg |

Naijai.......Sound Nigerian! WHATS UP BRO!!!!!!!
What you need now is some wheels. PLZ avoid anything less than 8'' wide. Its horrible in looks and the car performance! At least get some coupe 18s Congrats car looks way better! |

I went through 3 sets of springs saying that exact same thing before I finally listened to the masses and went with coilovers. I should have just done that from the beginning. smh |

Wheels will be either Coupe 18" or 19" OR 350Z 18" depending on my preference Along with Front Camber arms Ionic Lip Once the modding begins it's hard to stop |
WOW! that looks cool. Love the before and after pix to see the difference. Now you just need some awesome rims and you'll be set.
|
Ditto to what Blue Dream said.
I started with springs..now I'm kicking myself for not getting coils in the first place. As long you're content with the spring/shock combo then you're set. I'm gonna be selling my g/z springs and 350z shocks soon. Meh. |

I think that's why so many of us are lured into springs first. On top of them being a relatively cheap mod, when that drop hits the ride we THINK we're content. But it ends up not being enough like everything else with this car. :D |
I started out on this exact combo, Eibach pro kit and D-Sepc shocks, and now I'm slammed on coilovers. I'm pretty sure you won't be content with this 1.1" drop forever...hehe.
