clean ride. I love the red calipers, I want to get them on my G35xS. But, I would also get the car tinted to the lowest legal tints in your area. I will definitely help make your car look much sharper.

Much better w/ the drop, how does it ride w/ the chopped springs?
Look forward to pics w/ your Eibachs.

Surprisingly ,, much better , the car feels much more stable at highway speeds
just a tad harsher on comfort , but when you are used to a 1991 suzuki swift on H&R's
that rides like a go kart .....

I might just keep it that way

This is my first car. I've always driven trucks. When I decided to get wheels I went for 20's. I thought, "no way will I need to lower this thing". Because lowering isnt really my thing. As soon as the shop rolled the car around front once the wheels were on, I asked them to order the lowering springs lol. It looks silly so high up with the gap between the wheel and the fender. Funny because the stock wheels at stock height look normal.

My favorite color. Great choice! The only thing that hurts my eyes is that silly sticker on the front bumper. A part from that great work so far.

Perhaps if you like a smooth ride, did you consider doing the 350z / 370z spring conversion? Very slight drop and the ride quality is nearly identical to stock. I did mine last week-end and barely notice a difference in ride quality, springs cost me $80 on a local 350z board in Toronto and the things only had 2000km's on them. You can find a couple DIY's on the boards regarding this. If you go the eibach route, keep in mind to grab the X version of them.

P.S: T'es francais?
