Well I finally got my new springs installed. I had to wait for the new rubber pads to come in because I cut up the old ones trying to make the z32tt springs fit. They ride great and look great. They are actually stiffer then the Z32tt springs and also sit the car higher. They have a very connected road feel and I don't feel they are too stiff. If anybody is thinking about lowering their G50 this is the most economical way to go.

Thanks Wes

I finished things up at midnight last knight and the car is filthy. I will wash it today and snap some pics hopefully this afternoon. As for the alighment, I have been waiting to get the spring situation sorted out before I poped for the alignment (I have done this 4 times now and can R&R the spring and strut units, including compressing the srpings in about 2 .5 hours by my self). I am a fan of some negative camber, I like the increased turn in and with all the weight we have up front it will help keep from scrubbing the side walls as much, but we will see what they say this week.

WOW, like them is an understatement...I drove to the Bay Area today and logged about 200 miles on the car and I can't believe how much of a difference the springs made. this is the car I was hopeing to build. It is very comfortable and VERY stable. I took it up to 120 or so and it felt great, not floaty in the least. Thanks again Wes
