Nissan 370Z Forum - 370z Nismo Daily Pics and Fresh Pics

I think some mods are on the horizon for me...

I was thinking of the Tein S springs, i just want a small 3/4" drop so they are perfect, but its funny how the springs themselves are only a tiny part of the cost of dropping the car. Because then you gotta drop $400 on camber kits and then hundreds for someone to install... :(

teins will drop the car 1-1/4 to 1-1/2". :tiphat:

You must have some really crappy roads or live/work where there are lots of speed bumps. I have the same set as fuct and I have extremely sloped driveway and its been fine. You just have to watch your approach...yup! your gonna bottom out some of the time. The trade off is the car looks and handles better.

If that's the case, I think a 0.5" drop and a 1.5" drop makes no differences coz you are going to scrap and bottom out anyways. You might consider invest money on coilovers. That way you have the flexibility to change the ride height any time and anywhere you live. Of course that will cost you more money.

i scrape mine everywhere! every morning actually!

it happens, but the great thing about OEM body panels are their ability to take some minor abuse and flex.
