I miss having money and no responsibilities (not implying you don't have responsibilities).

My I30 used to sit so low that I had to have somebody lift the body in order to get a standard floor jack under it. Even then, it barely slid under.

I can't afford and don't care to deal with the harsh ride associated with slamming the G. If I could get great cornering with a comfortable ride, I'd consider it.

Why does it look purple now? Last pics I saw it was grey.

Are those the Sport stock rims, painted black? Regardless, they're sexy



Stop posting pics though! Makes me wanna get rid of my Altima or Jeep and buy a G Coupe!!!!!!!!!!

LOL everyone always ask me what color is the car. Blue? Purple? Grey? It depends on the light how what the color is. The color is called Blue slate and I think its a combo of all three colors.

Yea those are the Stock sports painted black, I have bad luck with rims because I drive so hard and I end up bending them.

Sorry but more pics coming soon, once my three carbon fiber body pieces come in

Nice ride dude. That looks like you will be scraping some now! LEt us know how the ride quality is.

Vivek, cost of dropping more than what you have now will go up a LOT...camber kits.

So if I got some Skunk2 lowering springs, I would also need the camber kit? Would this just be on the rear? or the front also? I'm planning to do my suspension next summer, I would like to tuck my 20s, probably too much work I have not done any suspension work myself, but I have a friend who has.

What would the projected costs be for dropping 1.5" rear and 1.75" front? Woud I even need the camber kit?

If you go lower than 1" you will need camber kits

The rear camber kit you can pick up for between $130-200 depending on how you go. I got an SPC kit for $150 shipped - new.

For the front you will need some adjustable A-arms. These are much more pricey. New they are around $400-500 and up, depending on the brand you get. You can find them used for $250-350

After that, you have to figure that you will need to get an alignment done as well.

The springs are cheap, the front arms are the most expensive part.

Also, the springs are easy to install.

Screw the camber kits, you don't need them. I slammed on my S-techs and never had these. I just got an alignment and the wear was fine. Also interms of increasing the handle of the car, negative camber is good.

Also the ride quality is harsh on my coils. I have it set as firm and stiff as possible so I think that explains why

How long did you run the S-Techs? I don't know how much they dropped you, but I don't consider S-techs "slamming". Not til you have 3" or less in clearance do I call it "slammed."

I was dropped about 2 inch on the S-tech and it was slammed. I had them for about 10k miles and I got them for sale now if anyone is interested. Here some pics
