Very nice. That's one car I've always liked is the 3/S tt. Too bad he's selling it.

for your year tails, i would recommend doing a full tint. not totally smoked out, but like a 35% tint on them.

how about you worry first about ordering them springs so we can get those on your car 100% before anything! Better handling for the track is A MUST!

lol... yeah man, i talked to Peng yesterday a bit about em and sounds like i wouldn't be disappointed with the h-tech (350Z version lol). i did see on G35driver some complaints about them not being even in the front but that could be an install error! Also he brought a good point that since i don't want to get camber kits, i shouldn't go too low, maybe within the 0.5"-1.0" drop.

Correct! The only thing that got me scared with the Tanabe GF210's is the camber kit. The ONE THING i will say ...is DO NOT LET 150 bucks, which that's ALL THE REAR COSTS, let you avoid getting the height you want, or you CONTINUE to look at the car and you'll wish it was lower every single time!
