I will be lowering my car soon and I was wondering what to expect in the way of tools or equipment I might need or what I have to do differently with a lowered car. I have ramps, jack stands, and a floor jack which all work ok with the stock setup, but I think once lowered they might not. Any low cost suggestions would be appreciated.

 

I changed out my springs and shocks on my G35 myself. Not too big of a deal. Make sure you get a breaker bar, rubber mallet, and wrap your tire iron in tape so you don't scratch up your rims.

 

You'll also need some spring compressors. I had to bring my front struts to a local mechanic to get the top nut off & put the new springs on the strut. I couldn't get the nut off w/ my tools. You may also need rear camber arms if you are dropping it low. I used SPC camber arms & toe bolts which brought it back into spec (I also have Cusco front A arms to bring the front camber back into spec).
