I added up the Eibach springs and alignment kits and its 680 bucks pre tax/shipping and I bet you could find the BC Coils for only a couple hundred more.

Are there other options to retain stock camber/toe with this drop other then Eibach?

The BC's don't have camber adjustments for the G35

The front double wishbone suspension design does not accommodate camber adjustments thru the strut. Camber adjustments are made thru the upper control arm. Unfortunately the OEM arm is nonadjustable.

there is, you gotta go custom.
I have a set of 1 way adjustable Koni Yellows (from TrueChoice) sitting in my garage, which I will most likely pair with Eibachs when my BC's show aging.
But they cost $1200, so with springs you're looking at $1500-still a decent deal for a complete setup.

Sounds like I will start out with the lowering springs.

This drop looks perfect for the AWD model, no sag in the back!! I am thinking about grabbing a set of these soon after I pick up a set of G37 coupe sport rims...Anyone else have pictures?

Anyone else get a set of these?! I put my coupe wheels on today and it needs a drop soooo bad. I really want mine to look like this (below) but I think that it might be a little too low. My car is pretty much identical to this besides the drop:

I ordered the Eibachs because after looking at it, I dont think I can have my car that low. The streets arent perfect here in WI, and Im pretty sure if my car was that low up front I'd be smashing the tire into the splash guard nonstop.

Im thinking about getting these as my next mod.. The only other suspension mod I have is AWD Hotchkis Sways. I cant afford BC coils (especially if I want to get wheels this summer) I dont care about a soft ride, I want rock hard cornering lol. That's what Im concerned about some say there is bounce? Is this the case? And how long will it take for the stock struts to go? Finally, how will these allow stock camber settings? I dont want to eat through tires. Thanks
