Whoops, good catch, I made an error, the fronts are 245/40/18 and NOT 255/30/18. Sorry about that.

On an update, at the car show, my friend lent me his OEM carbin fiber hood to put on the car too make it more "showy" and now I am totally all for a carbin fiber hood on a lemans sunset. When I returned the CF hood, I felt like superman putting on his clark kent clothes on again ;(

 

yea i like the look of the cf hood on the LS, i also have an LS but the CF hood will come later on for me

 

Looking sexy and hot!! I love the 285 in the rear!! I may have to get that look for my Sunset beauty!

 

Here is a couple of pics of my friend's OEM CF hood on my Lemans Sunset. If I were to get one, I'd get a vented CF hood though.

 

that looks sweet. the CF hood just goes soo good with the LS i also want to get the CF Varis Air Duct, will look great IMO

 

by lip I mean the front lip, not wheel lip...

What front lip is that?

 

It's in my signiture, it's a JDM Pro-Staff carbin fiber lip that I had painted.

To my knowledge, I think I am the only one in north america, or at least the only one on this board to have this lip. I've tried searching the net to see how you can order this lip and couldn't find anything. I bought it off ebay, the guy was selling it used because he damaged the lip. I found a place that could repair the carbin fiber and then got it painted.

 

I'm a moron for missing that...thanks. Not many just lip additions like that...everything seems to wrap around the bumper in some way. I think yours looks mo-betta.

 

Thank for the compliment, that is exactly why I bought the lip, because it did not wrap around the original bumper. I didn't even know about this lip, I just searched for "350Z lip" on ebay one day and it came up and I love the concept.

 

very nice...now you need to get some cross drilled and slotted rotors to make them rotors shine

 

Now drop that

 

So I took the advice of some of you guys to lower the car. I got the Hotchkis Sport Springs installed. It dropped the car by 0.7 inches. With the road conditions where I live, that is about all I can afford to drop it.

Here are some pictures, I know I should let the car settle for a bit(only a week) because the shop told me I might go down another 1/4 of an inch, but it was a nice day:

 

Looks good. Hows it feel buddy?

 

My friend who got the same springs told me the handling was like night and day, but I didn't think springs could make such a huge difference.

But I understand what he means now. I had a year and a half to learn the way my car takes the corners. Now I have to learn the new feel again. The car feels more nimble in turns, I am able to take sharper corners. I used to like it when the back end of the car would go out in a turn(oversteer), I pretend I am drifting like Inital D, LOL! But now it doesn't oversteer at the same point anymore. Before I can get the car to do a bit of oversteer, I'm already out of the turn.

That's the biggest difference I find. Oh, and this car was made to be an inch lower, it looks so sexy now.

 

ZlleH after the drop or the springs settle get a alignment .....

 

Nice....

 

Will do, that is what the shop told me to do. Wait until it settles and get an alignment.

 

nicely done!! Great job!!!

 

you should have told the girls you would take pictures of them with your car....

 

Speaking of alignments, Should I take it to the dealer to get it aligned or any good shop will do?

Will the shop know the latest settings that Nissan recommends for my car? Or will they do something to adjust to my new lowered stance and wheel offset?
