i find that guys that generally make the retarded comments are usually people who have never rode/hung out or jsut been around stanced cars before.
honestly about 4 of my friends were religiously against it until hangin/drivin with/around me for a month or two before they eventually did the same...IMO, bang for buck, its alot funner than spendng g's to shave off 2 seconds where you can only exploit them for 12 seconds at a time at legal venues.. where you spend that money and look alot nicer and still retain oem'ness just alot cleaner and more aggressive everyday everywhere...
my friends all caught on and abandoned the "track" scene to join the more daily driveable cleaner stance..
an srt/s2000/sti's to name a few.

But I see you guys on the street most of then can't look my way...
It all fun and games until someone who looks the same is faster...
I like being low but if you can go, you last!

yea you can definitely get the same look. sheeeit you can even drop it to where the frame is resting on the pavement. not sure but i don't think you can activate the air while moving only while parked, but maybe it depends on the type of system u get. i don't know any 350z thats bagged tho. i would always prefer coilovers over bags for slamming purposes.

my buddy has the D2 air ride for his gs300. he has the same D2 air ride sitting at home for his g35 as well waiting to be installed. It's basically a coilover with an airbag to go up and down for situations like speed bumps and dips. Pretty cool.

I guess people don't realize that you can actually ADJUST your suspension, and you can actually CHANGE your wheels and tires..... Shrug...
Low and aggressive for SEXY daily driving... (slammed, wide negative offset wheels, 235s front 255s rear)
A bit higher and wider rubber for FAST track driving..... (low but not too low, positive offset, light track wheels, 255s front, 285s rear)
You can have the best of both worlds you know, only takes me an hour to switch from slammed, dragging, destroying my car to a wicked handling track setup.....

^^ +1. I can go from 1 inch or less of the ground to 3" in couple minutes to an hour. Perfect drift set up for my taste. I can run any camber I want on my front or rear being at 18x12-5 with 265/35 now rolling at -1.8 camber.
Not everyone its on this style and has no go.
