Will I need the rear toe bolts??

A guy on the main forum reckons not worth the trouble.

Will I wreck anything long term if I don't use them?

Anything from Eibach is good.

Also if your after more the performance side of things I would think the Nismo factory coilovers are the way to go. Only drops your car by 10mm and you don't need to add any camber arms or toes.

However a very good overlooked brand is Tanabe. They do springs thats only 5% more harder then stock. It's made to work with all your factory stuff. So safe long term.

A few of the big online stores for 370z parts sell this brand.

Ronnie for F.I exhaust if you keep it at stock height it will rarely scrape as the lowest point on exhaust is with tyres. The front lip would scrape way way more than the exhaust would ever touch ground.

With lowering on F.I you have to go through bumps and driveways slower than usual else you will bottom out whole car not only the exhaust

If given the choice to get exhaust again I would still go with F.I no matter how low it is just love the way it looks and sounds

Spacers are illegal so use of it depends upon you. 20mm and 25mm on 19's would stick out a lot and will get more attention but for looks they would be awesome

With lowering rear camber kit is worth it, I just lowered my car on coilovers, my rear tyres are like half inch in air from outside (will show in pics tomorrow after getting alignment done on stock setup)

Thanks man! :)

Great advice. Do you think it would look bad if I don't lower and just put spacers? Also how would you think 15mm front 20mm rears will look?

Show me pics asap!! Your car will look mad!!!!!!

15 and 20mm would look great too, I think would sit flush with fenders

if you don't lower it and put spacers wont be as good, I don't know how to put it into words lol

Pics tomorrow in the daylight, with wider tyres 245 in front 275 in rears. Looks mad from behind!

Edit: or wait I'll go into garage and get pics now :p

Nah. I'm still lowering and spacers. Did u get new wheels???

Show meeeeeeeee!!!!

Man! You gotta intro me to the guy who's fitting all your mods for ya!!

nope no new wheels. Using stock 18's

yeah sure just let me know when you get the car and stuff

here you go with camber and clearance on exhaust

Hey Waqar,

What area you from mate?

Damn that looks awesome!!!

I'm very worried now that I'm gonna get pulled over the moment i leave my driveway cause it's Sooooo low.

Isn't there a way to install the cbe up higher??

Also waqar. What's the chances of you getting a measurement from lowest cbe point to the ground?

It looks to be like 2 inches!!??

Is your drop lower than what I would get with the eibachs?

Toorak

Its more than 2 inches

I'll get measurements tomorrow from the lowest point of exhaust and front lip

Eibachs would be higher than this

Hey Majestik

Before I start don't flame me, I am happy to be corrected on any point I am wrong and remember these ideas are based on my taste which may not suit others.

To help you out I will tell you where I am going which is very similar to Minicobra1's latest setup and maybe I think where you are going, but with the standard 19" Sports wheels. Thanks Minicobra1 for the ideas and inspiration (but maybe not the PC matt colour on a MB).

Have the following on the way from the US.
- Nismo OEM 19x9.5+40 and 19x10.5+23 same as bezzita's new rims. These are different from the accessory S-Tune Nismo rims which have the same offset and size as the 19" Sports Rims.
- Yokohama V103 Advan Sport 245/40R19 and 285/35R19 (conservative but I need just a little more profile for the road conditions up here)
- H&R DRS Spacers 15mm all around to maintain the stagger. From my understanding you will need the stud replacement type in the front known as V1 or DRS for 15mm or 20mm.
- SPC Camber Arms Kits (which come with the T/bolts dont let Margaret at Stillen tell you otherwise) Dont think you will need the toe bolts with the Eilbachs if you are setting the alignment to near stock, but maybe with coilovers such as Waqar setup.
- Eilbach ProKit Springs
- Stillen Sways

In addition
- Stillen G3 CAI
- NST LW UD Pulley with extra Alternator Pulley (can use the same OEM belt)
- Illuminated Kick Plates
- Splash Guards all round
- OEM Nissan Flat Washer Lock nuts to help keep those wheels on the car.

The offset on the above will give +25 on the front and +8 on the back. If this is too aggresive will remove spacers and sell on. Your Sports 19" offset using 15mm & 20mm would yield I think +32 & +10. Jump in guys if I am wrong. The general rule of thumb for a lowered flush look with 9.5 and 10.5 rims is +22 F and +12 R (thanks Schrute)

For exhaust really want a stock look and max ground clearance so FI is out which leaves Stillen, Berk or Nismo. Nismo is my prefernce looking for a moderate sound and good looks and willing the trade off a few HPs. Trying the stich up a group buy on Nismo out of the states on S-Tune. If any are intrested PM me.

Sorry for the rambling I am tired and its been a long day.

See ya Termac

Hi mate. Once again, thank you for going to these efforts to enlighten me.

Your setup (to me) is a lot more in depth than what I'm after. To be honest, I just want it to not look like any other Quartz I may bump into, sound meaner (but not crazy loud) and have a little more oomph! :)

You might have realised by now that I'm not that mechanically minded and am just picking things up as I go.

Those numbers you put up regarding the spacers I'm thinking of, mean little to me as I'm still learning. If possible, could you (or anyone) advise me what type, size spacers I require for the best look with minimum fuss and the least negative impact?

Also are you getting a hfc? What's your take on the power gains from including a hfc to your cbe? I'm just VERY paranoid that the sound increase will drive me bonkers!

Hi Majestik

Have a read of this link for Sport 19" and spacers its long but seems 15mm/20mm or 15mm/15mm H&R DRS was the consensus.

http://www.the370z.com/wheels-tires/...t-20-rear.html

No HFCs at this point just want to do the CAI and CBE at this stage and then plot my next option.

Have a listen to the exhaust sound and video files in the stickies of the exhaust section, maybe you will hear something you like. Its seems like its Nismo for me. Power gain is minimal 5-6 HP with stock Cats, but as I said looking for a bit of exhaust note change and finish as my objective.

Termac

Cheers! :) Thats exactly the thread I couldn't find!

Ive listened to all I can find and FI is the best sounding to me and it seems like the best service too.

It's a pity that the exhausts I'm hearing are only as loud as the volume I set it at..
