Default ~~~~ Question about Lowering z.

plz give in some input, im kind of confuse about lowering my z. k so i did some research about 2 dif kind of springs. n' i decided to use TANABE GF21O. as you all know, z comes in with front lower n' rear higher. my goal is to get them to the same height like wat most ppl did. i talked to some of my fds, n' got a lit bit confuse about lowering.
k........ GF210 allows u to lower (F/R): 1.0/1.2. (correct me if im wrong). so when i purchase 4 of them all together, but im not changing the height in front which will be 0 drop, but rear 1.2 drop.... does that mean that I MUST DROP 1in in the front??? of i will have to purchase a different set for the front. is that basicly how it'll work???

p.s. to ppl to have gf210 on their z, how does the feel?some inputs.. thanks, pix w/ numbers of lowering would be nice too =D

It would have helped had the original question been in English.

Are you asking if you can just use the rear to drop it 1.2 in and leave the front stock?
