In this case, it's function over form, or better yet, common sense over vanity.

Only 200?!

P.S. I can't believe they let you keep that arsenal! 200 rounds of ammunition? Who needs that much!

Good morning all!

hi mr.gurney- thanks!

my G is my dressup car so ive lowered her and have 3pc SSRs. she sports prokit, d-specs, front and rear stillen swaybars, stillen heim joint camber rods ($), ARK Ti front strut bar ($$$), powergrid endlinks. she came out of the box with large wheel gap on the front and slow steering. she looks pretty now and drives tight...that's the way i like my G. she has no clearance issues on most of the roads here as long as i take it slow and on an angle.

as for my Z, she looks great at stock height and i dont sense she needs suspension upgrade for the roads around here so no plans lowering. i might do sway bars down the road if someone (powergrid) offers adjustable endlinks front and rear for the 370Z.

i want to be able to take the roads with full spirit, not slowing down over man-hole lids like cars that were tuned incorrectly for street. lol

lowering a car just because everyone does it is wat naive folks do. unless specifically needed, no need to mess with the suspension on the Z.

my Z is an inprogress track car, so lowering and stiffening is needed...

but the occasional jaunt around town is fun!
