Sold the "Fairlady" and got the "Lady in Red"

Pics:

Planning on dropping it in the future. Any suggestions what springs/coilovers to use? I don't want to roll my fenders. I still have my eibach springs from my Z but I'm not sure how well that will fit in the G.

Wheels:
19x9.5 f, 19x10.5 r +22 all around
Tires:
245/35 f, 275/35 r Toyos

Thats nice man! I am about to get HKS HiperMax RS coilover system. It may and probably will provide a stiff ride, but I don't mind that at all. HKS HiperMax LS+ and Tein Type CS provide a little softer ride. People have different preferences. Oh yea...the ones that I mentioned will hit your wallet pretty hard.

Throw on the eibachs. It will look good for sure. I have Z springs on my G and they're nice. I forgot what brand though

Thanks for the compliments. I might try putting the eibachs on and see how much it drops. Hopefully, I won't rub.

I recommend the HKS Hipermax RS, you will not be dissapointed. I had the JIC FLT-A2's on my car for maybe 500 miles and I dreaded every mile. I since switched to the RS's ( check out the vendor classifieds on my350z.com for Injected Performance where they're $1400 or so ) and I couldn't be happier. The ride is nowhere near stiff, it's actually not much different then stock at the middle setting. The adjustability is great and the ride is incredibly smooth.

Hot car man. If I'm not happy with the eibachs I have now, I'll definitely start looking into getting a coilover and will consider the HKS Hipermax RS.

HKS makes a very nice coilover. I have the Hipermax LS on my sedan and I love the look and the ride. I hear really good things about the RS as well. You can adjust the dampening on the RS which can soften the ride if it's too stiff.
