Lowering kit / spings

Hey my fello G fans.
I have a Sedan I wanted to drop about 1/4" to 1/2" in the front. Any recommendations on what springs or other options I should get to do this? (brand and model/part#) Im not an agressive driver so basically all I want to do is drop the front end without losing the smooth ride (no bounciness).

Any info you could offer would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
G35papa (Who's yo daddy!)

Re: Lowering kit / spings

for springs minimum lowering is 1" (eibach pro kit)

however you can get some coilvers and make the adjustments. but coilovers are not cheap. 1500~2000bux (HKS coilovers or JIC)

I just put on the Eibach's. Highly recommended...I can barely tell a difference in ride quality...and only on the rough spots. The drop is perfect in the front and rear.

You can also buy a stock suspension off a 350z guy and it will lower your car nicely.

usually around 200-250 for the full set.

There are a few who are selling after putting on coil over's ive seen...

or you can wait until the euro spec suspension for the 350z to come out and buy those.

Well see if it even does. And if people still take it off their car for aftermarket suspension.

Can always get New OEM parts too. But that is a bit more pricey.

Re: Lowering kit / spings

Thanks my peeps!
I think im going to go for the Eibach with a 1inch drop
Your right culmination........I wouldnt even notice a 1/2" drop...realized it after I took a closer look.

Thank you all for your input, I really appreciate it.

HOLLA!
