lowering on coilover or springs
im about to buy a Z soon whats the best way to lower the car? just so it has a big of a tuck or no wheel gap....im guessing i would go wit coils but not sure...and would i also need a front and rear camber kit or would they Z have ajustable ones? cuz on my 08 si i had to get camber arms if i went over a lowering point and whats the best bang for the buck coils and best bang for the buck springs.....also off topic if im debagdeing the nissan emblems will iu have holes?
I would think best bang for buck is always coilovers. With springs you have an idea of what the drop would be, but you're stuck with it afterwards. With coilovers at least you have some options about height/ride comfort. For example if you're just driving in the city keep it at one height and then when you take it to the track lower it for that day.
If it were me and I had the money, I'd get coilovers.

Not being an a$s, but do what is listed below. There are a lot of topics and posts related to that question and I am sure you will find answers to future questions.

Better answer's depend on the car's oem suspension, like the S2000, Nissan made changes to the 350z over the years.
2003-2004 350Z
Tanabe GF210 1.2" drop
Cusco or SPL front camber arms
SPC rear camber arms w/elongated toe cam bolts or SPL rear camber arms w/elongated toe cam bolts
2004.5+ 350Z
Eibach Sportline 1.2" drop or H&R sport springs 1.3"/1" drop
Cusco or SPL front camber arms
SPC rear camber arms w/elongated toe cam bolts or SPL rear camber arms w/elongated toe cam bolts
The thing about making a coilover choice in your case vs a shock and spring choice is this. All you have mentioned is looks. If your not willing to poly up $$ for a good product choice, I don't see the point in buying what likely would be cheap coilovers. Only cheap coilover I would recommend would be the Eibach Pro-S at about $999-$1099. It's a rebaged Kw Variant 1 and offer's a 1.5" max drop, but good german engineering (think construction and valving).
