After installing lowering springs ---

Josh@STILLEN

We've had plenty of guys drive down from NorCal for big installs.. Let us know if we can help, and would be happy to give you the tour of the STILLEN complex when you're in town.

I will be sure to keep that in mind for future installs, I make it down there for business semi often. I'll bring the GTR down when I pick her up

its not hard at all to install springs. Air tools make it easier but you can do it without having to pay tons of cash.

Yeah I got it all sorted and paid a reasonable price. The car looks great now hunkered down a bit, the wheels just need to come out a touch...

Did you tweak the camber just after the install?

who did the install?

I have not, It is going into the dealership early Jan (1 year service already) and I am going to have them install Stillen Sways front and back along with some H&R Spacers and at that time I will have them align and adjust as necessary. If needed I will get the camber arms and toe bolt...

American Automotive on Harrison between 4th and 5th, they had really great Yelp reviews and the folks there were quite pleasant, though I don't think they usually handle jobs such as this.

On a side note, the aftermarket springs are considerably heavier than the stock springs, the box with my stock springs in them felt about half the weight from the Eibachs.

man iiunno if i could even do lowering springs. I scrape my front bumper as is when i go into parking lots or w/e.

So basically besides adding the Eibach or SPC rear camber/toe alignment kit, it can be aligned back into factory specs front/rear? Nothing is needed for the front?

Has there been any discussion as to how low the factory stuts will last with the Eibach spring kit?

Also...can anyone report on how the ride is with the Eibachs?

I aim to find that out here very soon, I hoping that will be the case.

Ride quality is excellent, I was able to get out for a drive this morning and cruising down the highway the ride is very near stock.

what the negative camber you usually get after installing ebiach springs with 19" wheels?

So I just just got the Eibach Pro Kit installed and there seems to be a lot of negative camber in the rear, and I can't find a local tire shop that will do the alignment, because they tell me they don't have the specs or their machine will scratch-up the front bumper.
Anyone know what are the original alignment specs??? I found one shop that said they will overwrite the computer for a 2008 350z and plug in the OE specs. Help!

Thanks a lot Slicks!! Just want to confirm that this is for the 370z, right? Not sure if my first post was confusing and you might have thought I had a 350z. Thanks again.
