Nismo officially list's the 350Z S-tune suspension drop as .6" or 15mm front and rear.
Part number 5300S-RSZ30US
Not sure is the link will work.

If installed on a G35 coupe, drop amount will be greater then 15mm. Likewise if installed on a G35 sedan drop amount will be greater still

You're right...they're now listing it as a .6 in drop. I wonder why the change in specs?

Installed mine last weekend on my '03 track and it really has yet to drop one bit. Sitting 1/8" lower in front and 1/8" higher in rear. WTF???

WTF?!?! i'm feeling that close to the heart man! spending that much money and not being 100% satisfied. but oh well, give it some time and maybe it'll settle in more. as for now i think i'm leaning towards the eibach prokit/tein s-tech springs paired up with tokico d-spec dampers. does anyone know the spring rate for the prokit?
