i'll probably be at stock height for a while, being that i'm not willing to spend more money on the z at this moment. but the more dropped z's i see on the forums and at meets, will make me drop it in the future
i think it looks ok at stock height. but i know it'll look better dropped. so i guess i'll start saving for some teins now
i am taking donations $$$ for teins if anyone wants to help out.

I agree..the stock height does look good. People who don't own Z's will assume it's dropped and notice that the car is already low. Only Z owners and hardcore car enthusiasts notice the wheel gap.

I agree, I actually think that the car looks great at the stock ht, much like a M3 or a 911, Honda's tend to look like 4X4s stock, but the Z looks good, in that the contour of the wheels maintains a constant gap in relation to the wheel well. I actually think that Zs that are lowered more than 1 inch tend to look funny.

The distance between the wheel and the body has to be able to flux like they do in high end sports cars. Slamming is great for show cars and track racers but for an everyday street warrior it has to be capable of clearing driveways.
P.S. nice car by the way... for some odd reason you have one of the few Z's that I can't tell whether or not it's dropped or not but it looks good either way. Many people might agree that you're the poster boy for not having to drop the Z and still have it look good!
