^^+2
springs for rwd fit 100% on ours (just not coilovers)

here's the dilly:
Impul for really mild drop ($$$)

Tanabe for similar slightly more drop (cheaper)

Eibach for 'ohhhhhhhh yeah' drop (mine)

H&R for suicidal 2" front undercarriage clearance drop (on the X), but will give the 'helllllllllll yeah' drop

I love the look of the Tanabes, but the reported bouncy ride has me looking elsewhere.
I love the look of the Eibachs, but the 3 3/4" clearance is a little too low for the roads I travel.
I like the Impuls, but the cost for such a mild drop is killin' me.

I'm waiting for Ian's report on the 370z springs. That may be my direction if this all works out.

I like the H&R's, and get compliments all the time. No issues with the drop!

Highly recommend H&Rs if you can handle the aggressive drop. I was on a fence b/w H&R and Eibachs for a loooooong time. Could not be happier w/ my decision though.

I got my H&Rs installed a week ago.. so far I absolutely love the stance and the ride. The ride is a bit more stiff than stock.. but not at all bouncy. However now, I do have to be very cautious over every bump and take em at an angle. The price I gotta pay to look good I guess.
