g356spd- yeah, i love the lip, it just gives it that something extra, pm replied!

shredX- yeah, i'll be parting with my oem 18's and S0-3's as soon as i get my new wheels. no i didnt replace the shocks at the same time. I'm going to wait about 2 months and get some tokico d-spec's.

Lord's47- yeah, they are BlueBatMobile 3/10 headlight overlays. I was the first 05 to have them!!! because Bat had to use my car as the test car

Escobar- thanks! now that i finally figured out how to post pics without them being attachments you guys will have pictures galore when the new kicks come in.

Chico- thanks, i hate to say it but, you'll see the wheels when they come in. They're nothing special, i just dont think anyone else has them on a sedan yet. Your car will look awesome with the new lip.

That drop is 100% perfect IMO. Your car looks great!!

 

thanks RRF. I agree 100%, i used to have a 97 eclipse that was slammed with coilovers, couldnt even put my fingers in between the fender and the tire and i hated it being sooo low but was to lazy to raise it up a little. I knew i didnt want the drop to be too low but wanted to close the gap. i was leaning toward tein h-tech's before but said what the hell, for $105 it's worth a try for some 350z springs, and now i couldnt be happier. I just cant wait to get the 19's on.

Yeah the 19s will definitely look sweet. I wish I could talk my mom into lowering her G. LOL.

 

Here's the comparison measurments for you guys:
front before:

front after:

rear before:

rear after:


so it dropped almost an even 1" all the way around.

will installing the oem z springs require camber adjustments and camber hardware?

 

No camber hardware was necessary for me.


Gdup, looks great!

 

dunno, i didnt get a chance to throw the car on the alignment rack after i did it, the guys at work were using it at the time. I'm going to check the alignment next week, i'll post up a pic of the results next to the oem specs for you.

but i highly doubt it's going to REQUIRE a camber kit.

Looking good...i'm sure the 19's will pull everything together nicely.

 

Looks nice... I'm doing mine Tuesday. Will post pics and measurments. It's also going directly to the alignement rack after the springs swap.

 

I am looking forward to seeing the lip on your car with 20" since I am contemplating staggering my wheels I just might switch over to 20" instead...

 

make sure you drive it like 10 miles or so before you align it. let the springs get settled real quick then throw it on the alignment rack. I took a measurment right when i lowered the car and it was only 1/2" lower, now its a full inch.

looks very nice, Im getting very tempted to put mine in soon with all these photos.

 

Will do, thanks.

 

are you on a sport suspension or non-sport suspension. (Sorry, dont feel like ready through the whole thread) I am thinking about getting the 05-06 OEM Z springs for my X. I dont have a choice for aftermarket shocks/struts so I am just curious as to how your ride quality is.
