thinking of lowering

I want to lower my 03.5 sedan, i have set of 19" rims (235/35/19) My question is the back of the car is much lower then the front, Should I just lower the front? If i do so, is it safe? would it effect anything? I would love to see pictures, and get your suggestions about me dropping the car, for cheap

Back of the car is not lower then the front, what gives it that look is that they cut the fender higher in the front then the rear of the car, because of this is gives the illusion that the back is lower then the front.

I have no idea why they did this, but they did it to the Altima also.

my altima is dropped on eibach sportlines (1.8" drop) and KYB struts which sits evenly.

yes the altima, max, and G35 all have the similar suspension set up but it depends on what springs you get because teh spring rate will help the way it will settle and sit on your vehicle. also, if you want to get a full coilover you can adjust the settings to really improve the ride height and quality.

Your best bet is the Tein H-Tech kit for 350z. Couple that with a 3/8" rear spacer and you will have just the drop and look you are going for.

cheapest way to drop the car is to get a set of oem 350Z springs. It'll drop the car 1" all the way around and it looks perfectly even. I paid $100 shipped for my springs and installed em my self. Best $100 i've spent on the car so far.
