Default Dropzone springs installed.

I bought some dropzone springs on ebay for 70.00. I thought hell its worth a shot for 70.00. Ive installed Tein, Eibach, JIC coilovers, D2 coilovers on my
g35 and now these on my 350z. Im REALLY shocked! These springs are a perfect drop! Just what I was looking for. I know they have a little ways to go until they settle but for now its all good! The ride is also good. I give these springs a thumbs up. For the price you cant go wrong!

That ride height + those rims=AMAZING...that is a Z you can be sure people are jealous of. If I saw you driving that down my street I would wish you out of my town for making my Z look bad...you bastid. Your offsets are perfect also! What wheels/tire sizes/offset/springs IS that anyway??

Default '04 with Eibach pro-kit

I just bought a 350 and got the Eibach springs for it. The garage is having alot of trouble getting the wheel alignment done. Is a camber kit necessary in addition to the springs? Please help!!!!!!

They were lower and they felt like cut springs! Im not getting crazy with the Z. Ive already spent WAY too much on my G35.

Offsets are PERFECT! I had the car loaded and the rear tires were 1/4 in from hitting the fender. I couldnt ask for anything better. I dunno the offsets, iforged wont tell you. I called Vince and told him I wanted the best fitment. Tires are Dunlops 285/30/20 255/35/20

Springs are not just for looks. Some springs are made of different materials which are very strong and durable. Other springs can break like twigs under extreme conditions.

Yes most people buy springs for looks, but a lot of others buy them for performance. Getting a good set of springs is difficult, but its a game of mixing and matching parts.

I will guarantee that you will get what you pay for when springs only cost $70.00, i'm not necessarily saying your springs suck but just giving my opinion on the springs.

Naw its cool. I hear ya. I just think these are just as good as the Tein's or Eibachs. Ive had S techs H techs and eibachs. Im not trying to sell anything. Im just giving people another option. I do all my own install's (everything) paint work ect. Everything on my cars, trucks bikes ect has been done by me. Ive been at this for YEARS. Trust me I know junk. Marketing also has a lot to do with price. I know you guys dont know me really on this site because Im pretty new to the Z. Im just started to mod it. Im sure you'll see soon I know what Im doing when it comes to cars.

I had S-techs on my Is300 and they sagged to the point the tires rubbed the inner fenders on dips in the road.
