if it is in the 1.2/1.0 range, think camber kits will be needed? I know a few of the Eibach guys got away will stock hardware

Oh. I missed that part.

I actually wish they'd come out with some Sport Springs at the same time. The 370Z chassis is already low as it is. I'm used to slammed 4 door sedans, couldn't imagine having my Z that low.

Hell the stock wheel gap/ride height on the Z is already better than the drop/stance on my Evo X with Tein S.Tech springs! A mild 0.4" drop would be perfect for me.

Definitely my case as well. I've been holding off because i don't want a 1.2" drop on my daily driver in socal, especially with the car that low as it is. A .5" drop with non-jaw breaking spring rates is what I'm praying either RsR or Swift start manufacturing.
