I'll add another voice to the as yet unanswered question, "How many inches was the drop???".

People want to know so they know what to expect. Personally I think the rear drop is a bit much (probably more of a body design issue than anything else as the wheel gap looks identical). I'd like to see the back a bit higher, how much is hard to say without knowing the amount of drop the springs provided

Looks really Mean, I just got my set of eibachs in, cant wait to put it in. Too bad im in Philly, we still need a reasonable height up here, If I was in Cali, or Florida, it will be to the ground, too much potholes up North. lol

Time to resurrect this thread! I see everyone recommending eibach and swift springs, however, I like the drop from the Tein S a lot more! Has anyone here experienced any issues with this drop that is a more aggressive than the for mentioned springs. With a alignment, will the camber kits be necessary? I've had my car now for 3 years and 1 month, I only have 22,500 miles. Any and all input will be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys!! I'm leaning towards this brand but I just need opinions, I also dont want to spend 1.5-3k on suspension(coils or what not)... Especially since I'm purchasing a GTR, in about 2 years.

Holy thread revival!

Camber kit would be recommended but not necessary. If you want even tire wear, then go ahead and get camber kits. The thing that i dont like about the S-Techs is that the rear looks like it sags.

Thanks man, yea I've been here for over 3 years, so it's no biggie lol. What do you mean by it sags? Do you know anyone that has been driving with these springs for a while, if so any complaints?

Slightly, the difference is minor when compared to eibach/swift springs.... Even my stock suspension has a bigger drop in the rear, when compared to the front. This is a pic of a g 37 with these springs.

thats whatt i have been contemplating. i recently ordered the s-tech springs and rear camber kit/toe bolt (SPC). the shop recomended me to not install the toe-bolt as it has to cut/drill for it to fit.

so if i plan to get rid of the car and bring it back to stock for resale, the ride quality will be garbage due to the rear not sitting proper w/out the toe-bolt.

the question is , is it really necessary for the rear camber kit/toe-bolt to be installed?? i am confused.

also i did research and there was no definitive answer to this.
