Here are some shots of my car compared to a stock one.
Both are 2005 6MT (comes standard w/ "Sport Susp. Pkg"
My car has Espelir "GT" springs for 350Z on it.
Just thought I'd show you guys for those contemplating...this is one option...I LOVE IT!!! ^-^

I like the lowered look but I think yours sits too low, sorry. Suspension travel on your ride has to be non-existent without rubbing...
Your wheel wells look huge to the sides now - instead of a wheel gap on the top, you have it on the sides.
Love the M wheels peeking through on the second shot..

Wow, that stock height is sweet!!!
The lowered car looks like it is tired or something.

I gotta agree with GeeWiilkers. Originally Posted by GeeWillikers

Jimmy, your car is low and nice but it makes the side fender gaps huge.

I agree ... white looks sweet.
I acutally think the stock height is just about perfect. However I could see a .5 to 1 inch drop looking nice as well. Not to bash you or anything because everyone has their own style and tastes. Personally, I think the drop is too low.

A little too low for my tastes, but the comparison shots are cool. Thanks for the pics.

Great comparison pics, but I personally find that the drop is a little too low. Other than that, white looks hot on the sedan. Looks like I'm edging towards white rather than black when I get mine later this year. White makes for easier maintenance and still looks nice.

Well, Jimmy, I think the car looks great at that height, but if it loses even 10% of it's handling prowess, it wouldn't be worth it to me. Since the springs you used were for a 350Z, though, maybe the performance is even better than stock. Then, you've just gotta watch out for road debris and high driveways, etc.
Enjoy your car babe - and don't be afraid to be different (just stay away from the outlandish wings and stuff, OK?).

How could it be? He has NO suspension travel left.Since the springs you used were for a 350Z, though, maybe the performance is even better than stock.
The ride has to be like a shopping cart on a gravel road..
But to each their own.
