looks good... don't know how you get around... I scrap my y-pipe w/ stock height and stock wheels LOL
I had PSS9's on my previous car and they rode nice... how's the dampening on your PSS since it's not adjustable?

Bilstein doesn't have a "lower" set of springs, but I think I may go with a shorter linear spring. So not 100% sure yet what the solution will be.
350zthatsme - Realistically the dampening is actually really good! It feels like a totally different car now, and i don't track the car so for what I use it for it works perfectly! I would like to ride on the pss9/10 just to see the difference between those stiff settings compared to the pss and see if it's more like the softer / stiffer / or mid dampening settings.

1st thanks to my boy Guitman32 (george) for the install!
Bilstein PSS w/ SPC Rear camber (Thanks Adam at z1)
15mm Ichiba V2 on all four conners (Thanks Henry at Statik)
The rear has settled some since the pics...I drove them today for about 320 miles and it's dropped a bit. I'll do a more fitting photoshoot at some point in time...
Work Xd9s - 285/35 +3 Rear -1.8camber on both / 255/35 +5 Front -2.6/-2.4 camber, will be getting the SPL front camber arms soon.
Enjoy...

Yep those are my offsets w/ spacers of course. +3 rears and +5 fronts.
I still feel like my front is tucked...but i'll leave it like this for a while.

Thanks man.
I was curious cause those seem like aggressive offsets and yet your wheels don't seem to poke out at all? I run +25 on the rear wheels and +30 on the fronts with the same tire sizes and they look about the same. Weird?
Again though, looks real good.

Yea the front seems tucked to me...I think it's because they're 18's and i'm not running a crazy neg camber. Not sure though...once the rear drops more, i think i'll see some more poke.
Thanks!
Thanks!

thats the nismo 2 front right?
id change back to stock taillights
stance seems good except the rear, youd be screwed in socal even mroe in la lol
im prolly as low as you maybe a tad higher. about 3.5 off the ground and its killing me on speed bumps but i love the look and handling
