I'm callin' the popo on you!

I didn't have the nerve to go with 20%.
I'd hate the idea of dropping $400+ on ceramic tint just to get fined on top of that and end up peeling it off.
I have the worst luck in the world.

 

dude, my thing is dont drive like a douche and they wont be a douche.

 

20% tint FTW! but since i got wheat interior, i wish i got 15%!!!

In addition, the springs are Tein H-Tech for the first gen sedan. I am quite happy with the drop. Very even. I have seen many drops, and most of them have an uneven gap in the front.

Now i need my lip and spacers!...

any recommendation on the spacers btw? I am thinking of 20mm all around.

 

finally installed 20mm up front and 15mm in the rear! Looks ok as of now.. saving up for some BBS. Pictures up soon!

now LIP!!!!

 

drop looks nice...do these drop more or less than the eibachs? how about ride stiffness compared to the eibachs?

 

The ride quality definitely changed. As compared to the 17" with stock springs to 19" with Tein springs, the ride can get bumpy in city driving with increased road noise. However, bodyroll is decreased. I live in the back alleys and there are many twisties I take everyday. Making turns are alot more fun now, and the car feels stable! (unlike at normal height, the car feels like its about to flip like a SUV)

As for the drop, it is very even! Its exactly 2 finger gaps in both rear and front. I have seen 1st gen Tein H-tech on 2nd gen RWD sedans, and they seem to have the increase front wheel gap. On my g35x, the drop is perfect. Looks like the front of the car is slightly diving towards the ground at certain side angles.. visually that is.

BTW, i never had eibach, so i can't comment on their ride quality or drop, but I highly recommend 1st gen Tein H-Tech for 2nd gen G35x sedans!

here is a quick pic i took with my iphone to compare drop vs a stock g37x

Are you running a camber kit with this setup? What were your alignment results?

Thanks.

 

Looks better on the G than the maxima IMO.

They kinda remind me of the stock VXR8 Bathurst wheels

 

what size tires on your 19's?

 

I would so take that car

 

I would also like to know this....

 

hey, whats up! sorry, i have not been on G35forum for quite some time.

The springs are 1st gen Tein H, and from the picture looks exactly the same. I do not have camber installed. Its been over 6000 miles since i had them installed, and the tires are just fine, and the ride quality is a bit stiff. There is no alignment issues as well from what i can tell. As for the finger gap, the front is still 2 fingers, with the back about 1.7 fingers. Wish it was even, but, looks quite good and unnoticable at times.

I will probably not get camber or alignment done until i change to a better set of rims and tires... which will be when the maxima tires are done.

 

I can't see the pics... Hmmmm

 

No pics!

 

to the op, I was also running these same springs and they would cause the shocks to make squeaking rattling noises when I would go over bumps and rough road. Looked over the installation and everything but everything was seated properly. As soon as I took them off, the noises were gone. Hence I figured these springs were no good for the 2nd gen x. You aren't having this issue?
