G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods

Here's an update on my suspension. Dropped the sedan from H Techs on stock sport suspension to S Techs with 06 Z struts/shocks. The springs seem to match will with the Z parts. Ride is taut but comfortable. I did this about 3 weeks ago in addition to front/rear camber kits. I previously rolled the rear fenders and run 245/40/19 all around on coupe 19s. Absolutely no rubbing or scraping ever. I really like the stance and might look at 5-10 mm spacers in the future but the set up is pretty flush.




If you call Tim at BC racing he can set you up with custom spring ratios for your coilovers. He is a cool guy that knows a great deal. Plus, I have been trying to talk him into making a front swaybar for the X

This isn't the best shot but I'll take a couple of more today and add them. I was sitting on a slight incline and my friend that took this had a weird lens on so the back is kinda stretched looking.
Thanks, Im so so close to buying them, I cant decide if Im willing to trade some better looks for the risk of losing some handling. Im on unrevised and dspecs now. That drop on your car seems perfect. I wish you were local so I could get a ride and feel the difference.
The Tein's are a great price too. I read this whole thread lol.

Here's a shot I took leaving the Stance show with my crappy point and shoot. I really like the look and ride. I'm pretty sure coils are in my future though. Every time I drop it a little I end up wanting more. This set up will get me through this year at least.
I may end up thinking that way too Blue Dream. I know once I get a taste of being lower I will chase it. Plus I will have to raise the car ever winter. Hard to choose from giving it a try and doing it right the first time. But for 175 bucks it seems worth wild to try. Im sure the springs would sell for 100 used so in the end its 75-100 bucks and time.
Thanks for posting they really give an idea of what it will ride at. Just wish I had some wheels too.

I got lucky and got a full set of revised Z shocks/struts and the S Techs for $200 shipped. Needed to replace my struts anyway so it seemed like a no brainer.
Probably wouldn't have found that deal these days in the Marketplace because it sucks so bad now.
