KevR6, I'm looking forward to your findings on what’s required with these springs. This will be my first experience lowering a car and having to deal with camber arms etc...Damn, If lowering cars was like trucks I'd be set. Thanks!

Did you install the toe bolt that came with the rear camber kit? Just curious as I do not want to spend the extra labor $$ on having the new toe bolt installed if I can avoid it. It was about a good 90 min to hog out both holes on the Z33.

The rear camber kit and spring install will be done while it's on the Hunter Alignment rack, so it will be determinded right away if I will need to install the toe bolts or not. My guess is NO. Thx for the input guys. :tup:

I've ordered a set also. Looking forward to kevr6 pics. Hopefully it's not slammed and the fronts Are lower than the rears as advertised.

They should be, I had the same springs on my Z33 with the same drop of 1.3" Fr & 1.0 Rr. I will see about posting up a pic later tonight, yeh it's not gonna be the Z34 but you will get an idea.

Post those pics As I only found one pic on the 350z forum. The g37 hr springs makes it look slammed but those springs drop it 1.5 inches.

^^^ That looks like its going to be the perfect drop for us if its the same as it is on the Z33.. :ughdance:

ZForce 04-02-2010 12:05 AM

I would really like to see these mounted up on a Z34. H&R have a .04" more drop on the Fr than Eibachs. I wonder how the spring rates compare?

My only concern with this much drop is how much is gonna drag going up driveways. The Z34 is pretty low to start with.

Dustin@AEperformance 04-02-2010 12:38 AM

The H&R spring is a very high quality spring! I've had good experience with them on my previous cars.
