The reason I decided to go with the H&R springs is because they are a little bit stiffer than the Eibachs and drop the car 1.3" up front and 1", which would look killer on with some 20mm spaced out Sport wheels.

This kit will definitely need a camber kit up front, but I was wondering if I will need them in the rear as well ? Any thoughts/input would be appreciated !
I would think the Camber kit in the rear would be enough. That's all I'm using.
I've just purchsed the H&R springs...changing out my suspension!!

The coilovers have weak dampening. I feel like I'm just driving on springs. Also they are to dang stiff. My wife actually got motion sickness on a 4 hr road trip on secondary highway system. I may spent money on KWs later but not until I see and ride in a car equipped. I'm familiar with H&R springs from past cars and wife's current car. Also the 1.3" drop will have my car close to where it is now but with a more comfortable setup!

I'll do a quick write up when I get them and install. (I may get NISMO shocks/struts)

Thanks on the wheel compliment!! To me I feel these wheels are only meant for the 370Z.

Write up a review and post some pics when ur done bro ! Id definitely like to hear what ppl think of these...

So it would be safe to say that all I really need is the rear camber arms ?
