Unfortunately, the information that you are telling people is wrong. As seen in the pictures, we were able to lower the front 3" and the rear approximately 3.5". That was the maximum drop that we can go WITH NO CUSTOM MODIFICATION to out suspension set up. The suspension's purpose is not for comfort. It's meant solely to perform and handle more aggressive than your normal suspension setup. And that's exactly what it does. So if you're looking for a comfortable ride, listen to JETPILOT and don't buy this suspension setup. If you want better handling and performance out of your suspension, then look into purchasing D2's. Plain and simple, don't believe the hype. There's always gonna be people out there putting their 2 cents in. But who knows if they really know what they're talkin about. I base what I say from experience that I've had with the suspension on the street as a daily driver and on the track. I've never had any issues or problems with any of the mods done to my car especially with the suspension. There are other people on here that have used the suspension and love it. For some, it may be too stiff and in some cases maybe to soft. But then again, it all depends on what you're going after. It just bothers me how people are so quick to say that product is crap just because it's not "made in Japan." We all know that Japan out sources all of their product anyway but people are just brand ****** i guess. For me, it's not necessarily the name that i go with, but rather the companies reputation and quality of their products.

Thank you.

I am going to make you eat your words !!!!!The turth that I am telling people, unfortunately is spot on !!!

I purchased D2's back in July. I installed the coilovers and was unable to drop the car below stock height in the rear, and 1" was the lowest in the front. Noah @ D2 had to have custom made front and rear lower mounts fabricated for me and a few other people here who made the mistake of ordering D2 coilovers. The rear mounts came and I installed them. The fronts.... well I have been given at least 10 stories about the fronts from Noah @ D2, and havent received anything as of TODAY. Feb 15th. No calls... No nothing. I ordered different rate springs for different tracks..... I got nothing.

Don't believe the hype.... my words exactly..... to anyone thinking of purchasing D2's. Be a brand ***** and go with a reputable company.

Quote from G352NV Nov 30th "Man Im stuck with the raised up rear. Ive emailed these guys and asked about the shorter blocks but get no return email. Im pretty pissed that they are not taking care of this. I paid almost 1000.00 and my ride is stock in the rear!"

Knightwhite99 had the same issue as me. Not being able to lower ride height from stock in the rear and 1" max in the front. He got the rears and not the fronts mounts either.

D2 customer support is non existant and they could care less what issues you have with their product. They did 0 research and development for the 350Z. Their product did not fit the 350Z and offer any height adjustablility in the rear below stock height.

To add insult to injury... D2 stole their "D2" name and logo from a German cell phone company called "D2" which sponsors a race car. This company D2 stole the name and logo so you would see the german race car with D2 sponsor on the side and think D2 suspension maker sponsors this race car when it is actually the German cellphone company. Thay actually stole another companies logo... Amazing.

Stear clear of this company and their products.

i can see some VIAGRA Racing Suspension in the works....
It actually lifts the car for about 4 hours of driving, then it goes back to regular height.

I saw that car at the Time Attack over the weekend. I was only there Sunday and it just sat all day. I never saw it hit the track, so not sure what the deal with it was.
