Ok here's the deal, I was originally going for bags but I heard nightmares so i will just wait until i have enough funds and knowledge about suspension.

right now i'm looking for coilovers, rear/front camber kit and spacers. Going to jump on the fitment class in 2012 :D

I also found tein 350z S tech w/ tokico blue shocks and eibach sportsline with tokico shocks for 450-500. Would this be an OK choice?

what else can you suggest? lets discuss!! thanks study

Tein, Tokico, and Eibach are all reputable companies. I would have no problem suggesting them. I am not sure how low they will get you though.

I always suggest coilovers ahead of everything else because it's not my money lol. A full set of coilovers (depending on the kit) just gives you the adjustability you can't get with a lot of other suspension systems.

Also, you won't need spacers if you figure out the proper wheel size and offset you need.

Sure don't, natural camber from lowering it. My rears come with "semi" adjustable camber in the rear from factory. None up front though.

noice..

the tein + tokico seems like a good deal, knowing my lazy self, i probably won't make any adjustment with coils. adjusting coilovers are still pain in the ass right? banghead

not really, set dampening when you install them. and in most cases you can change ride height with the car jacked up and the wheel still on.

Do you have spring over strut in the rear. or is your spring beside your strut. If the spring is beside, that makes it a pain in the ass to change height.

u can get coilovers so later down the line we can bag it, i messed wif my airbag suspension so much i think i perfected it and i figure out other combos to get a good price kit electric valves or manual pretty simple once u learn everything

have u thought of bc-r coils there pretty good for the price 30 way damp adj shock travel and camper upper plates

heres pics of my bc-r for the 300c Suspension no0b need some tips for 2012 Instagram

Hey sleepy, you got a hook up with bags right. whats a rough estimate to get a bag over coil kit if I already have coils.

jay makes sure that the coils have a dampering system on it. it will help you down the line. and like i said..i have ONE pair of 22mm spacers if you want it..lmk

thats my plan actually, get coils coz i know you can do coil/bag combo. then later on once i save money or finish school i can bag it at the same time i'm learning more about my suspension and how to maintain it.

u gotta give me a min i gotta see wat bags can fit ur coilovers and wat mounting kit and go from there and the real question would u wanna run manual paddle shifters or electric valves and manual or electric gauges

reason y is manual is cheaper (of course) and electric cost more and need more things for example

digital gauges need air pressure sensors +4

and electric valves are more exp but theres so many option of valves to choose from, then u got ur switches/switchbox etc

and more money if u want an auto level system

it all differs on wat kinda setup u wanna run really also wat brands i prefer universial air suspension bags/and accuair manage ment but i know vw use alot of airlift products but i only can get watever uas has to offer
