I lowered mine on the same springs, i felt a stiffer ride, harsher on the bumps of course. Still rides nicer then my friends stock S2k. You can't gain performance without the sacrifice of some ride quality.

Camber is a problem even if you didn't lower the car for the Z. I have the 05. still not notice this issue. That's y there're all kinds of after market Camber kits available for the z. read around this forums you'll find your answer.
