will do! the front camber is what i was concerned with, and it looks like i could definitely manage without a front camber kit, i'd probably still go with the rear kit b/c the rear camber is a little too negative for what i'm looking for, but all the other specs look to be fine. I can't wait till my Z has that stance! How are you liking those damper settings of 15/20, hows the ride for street/daily driving? how's the handling overall?

I bumped the front damper up to 22, as I was getting some scraping at speed. Overall the ride shows a huge difference. Smooth, and corners like it's on rails.

I had issues with the frt. lip as well, however, thought I'd trust that Mine's got it right. Wow, Looks totally different when you're standing next to it! Real nasty!

As for the drop, dunno, maybe it's the pic angle. Drops exactly the same, frt. and back.

Jeffblue · 09-17-2010, 06:32 PM

yea i think it is the pic angle, its only in 1 pic that it looks higher in the front.

ArtVandaleigh · 09-19-2010, 07:21 PM

Great looking car.

370Z JT · 09-19-2010, 08:13 PM

nice drop! only crticism i have is the rear looks too aggressive. Need to balance the front perhaps with a vented hood? hood ducts? bumper ducts?

Jeffblue · 09-19-2010, 08:32 PM

was looking at the drop and thinking about why people think it looks uneven Front/Back, i think its just b/c the tire in the front is thicker, so given the same fender height, there will be less fender gap the rear, which gives the illusion of being lower. I think it looks all around bad *** though.

Funny you should mention that. I totally agree. I've got the Seibon TS style hood on order.
I also really like what Marco of MRWorks has created with the GTR style vented fenders.

seungklee · 10-08-2010, 04:13 AM

looking good sir. how much did you get ur wheels for?

ZCarMan · 10-08-2010, 06:02 AM
