i would just wait, cuz im running the z h-techs and it's pretty noticeable that the front tires are experiencing premature wear on the inner tire. The rears are sorta ok but i still get uneven tire wear. I would wait till the camber kits arrive before cutting the spring mount

It really depends how much negative camber you want too. I have the Z h-tech with 0.5" springmount cut, negative camber at about -1.5 front and -2.0 rear, I can live with that for a good while.

Irishsig, did you need a camber kit? I'm planning on going with the g35 htechs, confirmed no camber kit needed front or rear. I wouldn't mind going lower with teh z htechs, but I'm worried about camber.

Also I assume if anyone goes with s-techs on stock struts they will need a camber kit?

I am trying to lower my car and just starting to do research on cost?

camber kit cost, install cost, s-tech spring cost...

yes you need a camber kit front and rear and i bought the kinetix kit for $700 from www.300zx.com + $50 for some SPC toe bolts +$150 for the S-techs +$150 for alignment and no i didnt have to roll my fenders because i am only running 275/35/19 i no a guy that has the same setup on 285s and he had to roll his but the total cost to lower it and do it right is $1050 if you do it yourself

Yes, G s-tech. Z s-tech drops the rear 0.2" more than g s-tech.
