Ive done tons of searching, but still I can not decide on what springs to get..

Will you guys post some pics of your lowered Zs, and tell me what they are dropped on? Thanks!!! preferably 18" rims

 

Me 2. I want less than 1 ' drop in the front, more 1.2 in the rear since its a big higher. Im runing on 18s.

 

I am running Tanabe GF210 springs with 18" Enkei wheels. It lowered the car about 1 1/4"

 

As my sig says, Advan 18" RGII's riding on Swift springs.

 

Eibach Pro.

 

I actually just dropped mine last night. I'm riding on stock wheels with Hotchkis springs. During casual driving, the ride feels like stock. If you hit a decent sized bump or start cornering hard, the car feels very nice. The springs aren't that much stiffer than stock but you can definately still tell a difference. I haven't had any ground clearance issues either. I've had to cross a handful of speed bumps and I didn't scrape at all. It took about 2 hours to install them and that was only because we kept messing with an Evo that was in the shop also. They lower the car .5" in the front and .7" in the rear. You do not need to get adjustable control arms with these springs either. The factory equipment can bring it back to spec just fine. I haven't had an alignment done yet but it honestly doesn't feel like it needs one. The wheel isn't cocked to one side, there's no vibration, and the car doesn't pull to either side. I don't have any pics yet but hopefully soon!

 

how much of a drop is that? Looks great!

 

cant wait to see those pics!

 

I have Eiback Prokit on stock 18's. The drop is .8 in the front, 1.2 in the back. I think it's the perfect drop. No ground clearence issues what so ever. THe ride is stock-esk. (Very close, I think it's even smoother) The only problem is the rear camber won't go back into factory spec. Still you can get an alignment to get it pretty close.

 

Swift Springs drop the car .8" for the front, and .6" for the rear. As for the quality of Swift, according to the company, their springs will not sag, and will last alot longer than the competition. Here's a link: http://www.swiftsprings.com/index.as...on=Custom&ID=2. Click around that technical area, there's alot of interesting information, which made me choose Swift. Swift may not be well known, but they are JDM, and they are used by alot of race teams... even by teams in 24hr of Le Mans. As for ride quality, check the spring rates (forget what they was), but it's perfect for the stock dampers. Super comfortable, yet sway and cornering has been improved. Best of all, camber will be adjustable to stay in spec.

The only con: they are expensive.

 

i'm riding on RS*R Ti2000's they're also guarenteed to not sag, and lowers all four corners around .6-.8". Note that the passenger side sits higher than the driver side, due to the car's natural uneven weigh distribution between driver and passenger sides.


edit: pics of the driver side the day i installed them...and still on stock wheels

 

I got GF210's and they are awesome.

 

i have stock one and it's not bad..

 

i just installed tein s-techs and they lower .7"f .6"r. so far i am very happy with them. ride feels better than stock and a nice little drop.

 

pics?
