new wheels + suspension!

Couple quick shots of the new toys. Its been about 1.5 months now and I love the new setup. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pictures. Also had the car corner balanced at a local tuning shop. 350z rear camber arms do work for our cars!
  • G35 Coupe 18s powdercoated Prismatic Gold ; Hankook Ventus V4
  • D2 RS Coilovers
  • TC Sportline 350z Rear Camber Arms

I'm thinking about getting those D2 coilovers for my car and I wanted to know what settings are you using for your ride and are they easy to adjust? Also, did you do the installation yourself or did you get a shop to do it? Those D2's are so dang pretty too bad you can't really see it.

as of now i have the dampening set at 24. i haven't really messed with the dampening but its not crazy stiff, its still bearable in my opinion. to adjust them, you are have to remove the two bolts or one in the rear, that hold the strut to the knuckle. then you can spin the bottom perch to adjust. you're not suppose to adjust it via the spring perch. i installed it myself, with air tools and lift took about 1.5 hours. a good piece of the time was adjusting the coilovers evenly.

im shocked the 350z rear camber kits work. so you are able to adjust them with the max's concentric bolts to extend the arms out or are they the ones that mount oem and adjust with a reverse threaded bolt in the middle?

Looks good. You should remove the eyelids and either black out the headlights or black out the amber corner strip. Maybe try black center caps?
