worked on it till 2am, first time I had put the car together and drove it since summer. Still no coilovers they being revalved so in the meantime just springs. As you can see I haven't set up camber yet but I have an appt for an aligment friday, only -1.7 camber in the rear so I got plenty to work with, the front sits perfect as is.
So where are all the guys who told me it wouldn't work when I posted my wheel specs the other month ?

Looks sick. Springs don't do it justice.

Dre, who knows could have been someone from the my350z forum bro, i just remember someone saying "good luck fitting those" lol, yo man my fckin brakes, when it's wet outside right when I'm about to make a full stop like from 5mph to 0 the make this really loud noise like a mini air horn, are slotted rotors supposed to make that noise ??

thanx Goblin yea alignment this friday just so i could drive it without rubbing, and then coilovers soon as they're finished its goin down


i was breaking bones the whole time i was driving last night, and by that I mean the tire was rubbing the fender over some dips sounded like bones breaking.

-8 ? hell no thats like Don Pisto status, i think about -5 should do the trick

Yep, tis what I was thinking. Once you get the coilovers back from being revalved and put them on I think the fronts will need hardly any adjusting camber wise. Rear, not so much, maybe tack on 3 degrees. Wouldnt do the alignment either right now since the springs will settle, and you'll be putting on the coilovers, and still adjust thing camber.
