Show Us Your Drop

I've been thinking of getting the actual nismo struts and springs on my Z as I don't wanna go super low...I've read that they give about half an inch. Anyone

Don't waste your time like I did. It did NOT lower the car by .4 inches, it in fact raised my fronts .5 inches! And the rear was the same height. Get swifts or Tein H tech if you don't want to go very low.

Based on what I'm reading most places. Eibach pro kit is less of a drop than swifts. Wouldntt that be more ideal for this situation? I'm actually in a similar situation. I'm leaning toward the pro kit myself..
