id rather go with the 350z s-techs for an even drop all the way around....

Everyone i know locally that has the s-techs definitely needed a camber kit for the rear.... the shop couldnt get it close enough into spec.

just get the 350z htechs and do the rear springmount mod if you want. No camber kit needed. You will not need to roll your fenders with the htechs.

forget the drop.. I think you might need to work on your picture taking skills, my eyes hurt!

no worries though.. you can find some used springs on here for ~$100 if you look around and install them yourself over a weekend if you short on funds...

No problems with the tint (legal wise) but im not 100% sure what it is. The car came with the tint, im assuming its 25% on the rears and 35% on the front 2 windows. If i had the spare cash i would love to get it darker...

my camera does suck horribly. Luckily, i have a friend with a DSLR who is going to let me borrow it while i let him borrow my porter cable. Hopefully i can get some better pictures then....
