how much does it usualy cost to lower the z. I dont mean just springs. to get it were i dont have any tire feathering. and i see a ton of different stuff from a $49 camber kit to a $700 kit. whats good to go with?

 

Get the Z-max lowering kit.. it includes the camber arms in the kit... it also includes an anti-tire feathering kit... i think it costs somewhere around $99

 

GO WITH THE SPC KIT. iT IS PRICER THAN OTHERS BUT IT ALSO HAS MORE ABILITES TO TUNE TO THE RIGHT SPECS. IF YOU WANT YOUR CARS ALIGNMENT TO BE EXACT THIS IS THE WAY TO GO. SOME OF THE OTHERS KIT WILL GET YOU CLOSE BUT NOT EXACT DEPENDING ON HOW DROPPED YOU ARE.

 

What rear camber/toe kit other than the SPC kit that does not require you to grind out the adjustment slots to install.

 

probably just about every other kit!!! you can do it man i have no mechanic skills at all. i swapped my springs and put on my spc kit. Just give yourself plenty of time for the install.

 

+1 , and the rewards of building your own car are great. You save money, and you can actually say that you actually did the mods.

 

grinding it takes all of 5 minutes per side...it's not rocket science, even the template is included.

 

$916.25

 

i dont mean to thread jack but i have never owned a car that needed kits and stuff to lower......

anyways, how low can u get before u need these things..

 

if you are a 1inch or lower you will most likely need camber arms and toe bolts unless you like going through tires every couple of months.

 

One inch????...wow i was thinking alot more than that...but thnxs for the info

 

your welcome!!!! The rear suspension loves to camber once you start lowering it!!

 

how low can i go before i need to roll the wheel wells or i rub? i was looking at the eibach sports

 

also thank you to every one who has replied.

 

it all depends on the offset of your wheels. I'm lowered about a 1inch and a half and i rub. I have the spc control arms and toe bolts lowered on gf 210 springs.

 

it varies by wheels, amount you lower, tires, etc. There really is no magic answer to it. Thanfully rolling fenders is neither difficult nor costly, so if it needs to be done, it's not a big deal

 

Im trying to decide between these two options for my car:
Tein S.Tech - 1.5" drop
Cobb Sport Springs. - 3/4" Front and 15/16" Rear drop

I am on 18"x9.5" Rota wheels

What kind of drop kits should i be looking into? And where can i get the SPC kit if that is what is should have?

 

Tein S techs do not give a 1.5 inch drop.

For the rear camber kit, we carry both the SPC and it's less expensive cousin, the Eibach (see sig). The Eibach kit is made by SPC, and put in an Eibach labelled box...absolutely 100% identical kits, but the Eibach costs less for whatever reason. We can package the Eibach + Stech together for $365 shipped

The Cobb springs are nice as well, and we have them in stock, but I favor the Tein springs for the Z overall (Cobbs are also $50 more expensive)

 

im lowered with eibach sportlines on 18x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rear. I had to get a spc camber kit. Truthfully i need a front kit to but i can deal with out it for now. Also i got away with not having to roll my fenders.
