My 03 Z is completely stock, and was planning on getting some wheels and lowering over the winter...

Now, for my civic I needed Front upper control arms, adjustable rear camber arms and adjustable rear toe arms to lower it as much as I wanted to.

Is the 350z suspension the same way? Same parts are needed? Or are they different parts with different names?

I was looking at rear camber/toe kits online and it seems like the camber and toe adjustment is with one piece? Or that the toe kits look just like a bolt... Wtf? Why exactly am I going to need?

I was planning on doing a full JIC suspension setup... JIC coils an adjustable arms...

 

What do I need to lower my Z?
FAT CHICKS.

drop springs
rear toe delete bolts
rear camber lower arm.
thats it.

 

too vague.

how much are you planning to lower it? what are your goals?

toe bolts are used only if you run an oem spring/shock set up where the spring is seated separately from the shock.

if youre only planning to lower on springs, you'll be okay with stock components in terms of alignment and tire wear.

 

Moved to proper forum
wehre you probably ought to read this first...

I will be dropping on coilovers.

Drop it daily Canadian driver style. Tucking a bit of tire but not hellaflush. I want it functional for occasional track days. (we have 1 or 2 lapping events a month here and that's it)

I don't need the front camber kit?
Just rear camber adjustment and a rear toe delete kit?

I will read through that thread when I have time when I get home from work.

 

yup.. rear wear is usualy from bad LCA bushings and compression rod bushings.
Youl want those too.. they just kick @ss... car feels great afterwards.. tiiiight steering feel.

true coils are a grip, i run stance LX, good enuff for me.. they run a oem spring set up.. i run giiant rear tires so i had my camber set at -.5 to maximize patch, but rear toe is the killer, makes car very squirely over 80, kills tires, loud etc..
id say determine your exact coilover set up after reading the thread provided and go from there.. but the short answer to your first question, NO, you dont need a ton of parts like a civic.

 

I've also got a 03...stock suspension except for Nismo stabilizers.You know I think lowering is great..if done right.However,in my area(Atlanta),we have hill/steep driveways etc.If you run any kind of lip(I run a Mine's)+19's&bigger tires,you are gonna have problems just with stock.Nothing looks worse than scrapped/cracked body mods.
Got to keep this in mind.Looks great...how practical is it for your area and how you drive?
