Lowered my car today with Eibach Pro Kit springs and Tokico D-Specs shocks. Had them installed at M-Workz in Gardena. Got the springs from a member here (thanks Alex). Bought the shocks from one of the forum sponsors. Also received a ton of advice and info old posts and talking with people here (thanks Dexter).

I love the feel of the ride. I already had sways, but springs/shocks make a huge difference. Also looks much better than stock height. I'll go back to M-Workz for an alignment in a couple of weeks once the springs settle. No rubbing whatsoever yet (tire size is 245/40/19 F&R) and I figured I would have to roll the rears. Also the front has less gap than the rear, but it already sat like this when I was at stock height; I suspect that having the larger tire size up front contributes to this.

Rear gap

 

Nice, the gap in the rear is much for me, but it could be just the angle and shadows. Hopefully it will settle down alittle. But other than that, very nice. And the brake look sweet.

 

the car looks good, good stance.
nice willwood

 

I bet it will come down another 1/4" or more in the next week or so.

Looks 100X better. Great job!

 

car looks great! while waiting for the suspension to settle in, i'd suggest getting those adjusters for the rear that we talked about...i can help you put them in if need be...

see you at the socal meet on thurs

 

That looks great!! thanks for posting pictures.

I really like the over all look of the car, nice and clean.

wow, nice drop, i think that is perfect,

good job,,

 

Had the Eibachs they will settle more in the rear. On my car the front looked pretty slammed and the rear was higher but they do settle... Also when you get your alignment ask if they recommend camber/toe kit to get rid of some of the neg. camber.

 

Looks good man.

 

looks like the rear is higher than the unrevised 350z springs?

i love height of the front. wish mines looked like that.

how is the ride?

 

Are the back wheels sticking out too far from the fenders? I tried installing 18 inch coupe stockers on and they look funny because the rears were too wide. BTW nice drop!

 

damn looks good

 

Thanks for the all compliments!

Hoping that the rear will come down as it settles. Ride is great, performs much better than just sways with OEM shocks/springs.

Rears stick a little (not much) becuase of the offset, but it doesn't look funny IMO, looks agressive.. Will post a pic later when I get home.

It is my understanding that coilovers would have dropped me lower than I am sitting right now. I only wanted to drop it ~1". Don't want to scrape everywhere coming in and out of driveways.

 

looks great!!
