Found out the fender does rub with 20mm up front. I am dropped 1.4 in front and rear on KW V3. Got an alignment back to stock and it definitely rubs but only on banked turns while hitting some bumps like on on/off ramps. Going straight is no problem. I am still looking to go 1/4 to 3/8s lower. If you go 20mm spacer up front, drop your car about 1.5 inches, and drive agressively, you should definitely have your front fenders rolled.

Zforce, I think you are on Eiback Prokits? That may be why you aren't experiencing any rubbing issues?

I checked my fender earlier this morning. Looks like I am not rubbing the fender but the little bump of the fender lining where the bumper meets the fender. It seems as if my tire scraped some of the lining off already. I'll take a picture tomorrow to show what I'm talking about. I wonder if I ccan just cut that piece off...hmm


Also my coilover are out of the box settings. I may have to play with the damping or rebound. Not sure how to approach that yet.

Yup... I have the ProKit (0.9 drop)...as I do not think the Sportline (1.2 drop) was available last Aug when I purchased mine. I would have still stuck with the ProKit becuase there was no need to buy $$$ front control arms. Any lower and I would prolly not be able to kick out the wheels any more than 15mm in the front.

20mm in Fr and 25mm in the rear is a perfect match with Eibach ProKit and SPC rear camber kit. Also the Toe bolt will def have to be installed to get it back into an acceptable range or OEM spec. But NO upper control arm needed....yipee!!!

Roll the front fender? They are already rolled. ....Errr....correction, I just checked and they are NOT rolled from factory....bastards...the Z33 were rolled from factory...what up??

Anyone have the problem of installing 20mm spacers with the bolts built on, in the rear, and the stock studs extend past the spacer...causing the wheel not to sit flat against the spacer. How do I fix this if my wheel doesn't have a space for it. It makes me quite nervous that it will fall off. Should I shave down the stock studs or dremel into the rim? Please help.
