Has anyone lowered their car yet? Coil overs or springs?

Hay Aus370z i saw that you had put some rims on your car already, seeing that the 370 is running on different offset, are you running spacers on the rear?

I will be looking at lowering the car when I get it. Dont think I will go as far as coil overs. Prob just springs.

I'm hearing all that is required to get your alignment back in spec is a rear camber kit?

Hey there,

i have a set of 4x Pedders Sports Rider springs in mine. i have a 2 inch drop.
looks and handles like a dream!
watch out for the speed humps though!
will set you back about $800

cheers

A 2 inch drop would look mad! Got any pics? I never thought of Pedders...

I am looking into springs and Cusco sway bars but want more of a drop than Eibachs.

it looks and handle great! the plastic front lip cops a beating though!
but its worth it! it gives it a an entire new look !

have a look at my album ...
cheers

I would love to see photos of the 2" drop too !

Looks awesome! You may have to take the lower lip off.

im still figuring out how to use the forum guys .. sorry .. lol .. once i figure out how to upload a photo i will take a pic for you :)

the lower lip will definately have to go ! ahaha i have a set of 20" wheels going on it in about months time. may have to lower it another inch at the back ...it is going to look great :)

mysxz does your car have front led's too ??

I think I have seen you and your car in beginning of August in Sydney in front of some hotel lol

yep thats mee ! got my Audi lights on hahah .. u located in Melbourne ?
im trying to find some Sydney locals .. did u like the Audi effect ?

peace !

I'd also like to see some pics of the drop and the led lights :icon17:

I am lowered about 1.5 inches with BC racing BR series coilovers. Front lip is 3.5 inches off the ground. Lowest part of the car is the muffler at 3 inches off the ground (Fast Intensions catback w/ carbon fiber mufflers).

Hi mysxcz. Nice car and I'm also hanging to see what it looks lowered and the LEDs. Just another question for you. In your profile you said you got the first 370Z in oz. What Reg date has your Reg sticker got? I'm curious...

Hi Majestick !

i will definately get some more photos for you all.

i havent had a licence for the last two months so i will have to give it a wash prior to the photos ! ahaha

the Rego date on the car is 30th of April, my Recepiet is from 27th of April..

i love your Z .. i think we may ave the same LED's mines just positioned differently.

cheers!

:) Great minds think alike! Mine's reg'd 21st April so that makes me the first oldest person to have a Z in Australia :)

How are ur lights placed? Add me as a friend and I'll PM u my email for pics!!

We want pics!!! Lol.

ahahah wow! u beat me !! awww well im only 20 mate so im not doing to bad haahaah

i just put a new pic up on my albums :):):)

cheers

Has anyone from Aus put Eibach springs on their Z yet? I am considering taking the plunge.

I am looking at RSR springs as they have a slightly lower drop than Eibachs

How much are they? Where are you sourcing them from? Do you know what the drop is?

My mates run this import web site which connects directly into yahoo.co.jp


The spring rates and drop are specified in the adds but it's a bit hard to tell...

Hey Import,

I'm getting my FI exhaust installed this weekend and also want to get a set of coilovers. But first I wanna know if you've hit your mufflers at all on anything yet since you've been running with coilovers. :confused:

I must have when I 1st got them, cause there is some carbon fiber missing on the lowest part...but I have been checking and have not lost any more in a while. I am LOVING the exhaust.

I am also VERY low so take that into consideration.

I am close to ordering some coil overs now. You can get HKS Hipermax III for $2100 + shipping on the Monster Import site. Is anyone else keen?

I is!
Think might throw some extra items in from monster if we get them from there.

For comfort, what coilovers are recommended?

Are Tein Comfort Sports available for the Z?

I got KW V3... and I paid US$1950 shipped from one of the forum vendor here. IMO it's better than HKS and cheaper..., as I remembered KW comes with Stainless Steel sleeve and HKS dont... only coated.
