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?

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.

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).
