Default Lowering springs needed for 350z?

I really think the z's are low enough, but i see people lowering the Z's still. About how much of a drop is practical for the Z's?

depends on taste really, i with many others members on the boards would agree that the Z needs a mild drop depending on wheel/tire setup.

i personally went with the nismo set-up since its a mild drop and dont have to worry about camber/tire wear issues. My daily driver. i would prefer a more aggresive drop though.

when I first got my car, it felt low, now, it's lowered like 2inches and thinking about going little more...
coilover status FTW!!!

personally, after I dropped my car with coils, stock Z or G just look so.. 4x4..
