tein S lowers about an inch. tein H lowers about 1/2". ( -0.6" front, -0.3" rear )
i like my H bc its just a bit stiffer than stock, and wont give you ANY camber issues.
(ive seen hit & miss with S tech... i really think you should get shocks if you decide to go with S tech.) yes, drop IS noticeable.
ive seen many happy reviewers with H tech for 350z, btw.

I have the Tein S Tech's and love them. It lowered the rear 0.9" and the front 1.2". After I had the car re-aligned it left the front camber out 0.5 degrees. I'm going to invest in a camber kit soon to avoid excessive tire wear, but the lowered look is worth it. I'm also running 20" 35 series tires and no rubbing at all.

Thats why I dont want to go to low . Dont really want to spend the extra cash to get parts to make up for the ones I buy . Would like to hear from some one with Hotchkis springs . They are suppose to be 3/4 front and 9/16 rear . That would be just about right . Thanks for the replies guys .
