Tanabe springs
hi ive been doing research on springs for my z and ive drawn to two brands i was thinking on the eibach pro kit or the tanabe grip feeling ive already seen what the eibach does with my same wheel and tire setup but havent seen the tanabe here is a link to them http://intensepower.com/tanabe.html do u guys think it would be a good idea to get this over the eibach plus they say it drops the car in front 0.2 more then the eibach opinions please
here is a link to a Z with eibach and with my set up what do u guys think is the drop in front enough or should i get the tanabe wich will drop it a 0.2" more in the front http://350zmotorsports.com/noname.html the drop i want is the fender with tire as close as possible please reply

What size wheel and tire setup are you going to have? Honestly, I think the Z is too damn low to begine with. Anything lower than a half inch drop and you will be scraping everything unless the overall wheel/tire combo is larger than stock.

P,S while you're at it pick up a Camber kit and toe bolt kit.
Camber Kit from here
The toe bolt kit is like 40-50 bucks.

It seems pretty damn low to me, I scrape the road sometimes when coming down slight inclines. It really makes you cringe when you hear that CRRRTTT under the car. I guess im just used to my old 03 Stang, those damn things are trucking... You'd haveta drop it 2-3 inches to get it to look normal.

It's not fun to scrap but,once again a car that sits up too high on the wheels just looks dumb.
Did I hear mustang? lol

After doing research myself and just from customer experience, the Tanabe GF210 lower the car more than the Eibachs. The Tanabe springs are the best bet if you are trying to fill in the fender gap. Response Import Auto Fashion has them for $156 plus actual shipping. Give them a call at 310-534-4910
