You will regret dropping a Z32 that much. I used to have Intrax springs a few years back which were a 1.5" drop, and that was too low IMO. I currently use Eibach springs, with a 0.75-0.8" drop.

I wouldn’t recommend any more than ~ 1", seriously.

many places won’t service your car if it’s dropped,

that means no oil changes/alignments/ect/ect…

when you drop a car, we can’t set it up on the hoist properly, or without worry,

so we don’t at all…

just a heads up!

:rolleyes:

This is the dumbest thread ever. The only post i understood was Inzane’s.

But slam the shit until you hit your frame, when you drive over man-hole covers, or burn thru your harness that runs above your front wheels. I know i have lots

If you are actually considering lowering your car and you dont wanna buy a good set of coilovers, buy cheapies.

Ebay it up

Dont no why the fuck you would want to lower it?  
You already scrape when you go up a curb, planning on testing out the strength of the chassis?
