Question What Springs to get 4 basic Drop!?

Im looking to drop my Z about 1.5"-2.0". I only want to buy the springs and really dont want to change the ride/comfort of the car, im just looking for the drop. Any suggestions on a good basic spring to get that i wont have to use struts on? I heard Eibach's were good.....

Form what I've read on here...it seems that with that extreme of a drop (1.5 - 2)...you are going to have some camber issues with just springs only.

The perfect springs for what you just asked would be the Eibach Sportline kit. It ends up being about 1.5 inch and looks great.

With that drop your stock shocks should last about 8 or 9 days. You will need to buy a body height adjustable coilover to drop 1.5 to 2.0" correctly. Add to the shopping list front camber adjustable A arms, and rear camber arm/toe kit to bring alignment back to spec or you will run through tires like @ss.

ive got some KGMM springs for sale, they are the DR21 supersport springs, they drop about 1.25 inches front and rear, and the ride is pretty close to stock. im selling them for only 125 + s&h, they retail for about 300.
