Nice...I have the same color car and just dropped on the exact same springs...in fact, today it's been 2 days shy of a week and I just got back from getting an alignment - the good news: a week later and after settling, every corner in my car is back in spec!

Looks good. No doubt the best mod for these cars. Freeway on/off ramps and parking garages are good for settling the springs.

Does the G37x Coupe sit higher than the non-x coupe?

Nice drop. Well needed. That's how it should come from factory.

Do you guys think a rear camber is absolutely necessary with the eibachs or is just an alignment good enough? How bout the headlights is it that noticable?

Yeah the headlights need to be re-aimed. The lows point straight into the ground now. I just haven't had time to get it done....

Hey Eric,

Just wondering, do you know how the tech was able to get the front camber back into spec?

I've done a quick search on the forum and i couldn't find someone talking specifically about how to fix your front camber. Did you guys noticed our G's do not have a front camber bolt?

My rear's did and actually, after my Eibach drop, I feel that my car is better aligned.

Perhaps I should post this in the tech section of the board.

I didn't know you can get alignment within specs without camber kits? Is this common?

To be honest, after installing my eibach's, I feel that the alignment is better than from the factory. My mechanic was able to actually get,

Rear:
Camber: -1.3* (factory spec (it could be -1.2*))
Toe: +0.06* (factory spec)

Front:
Camber: -1.3* (Factor is -0.8* I think)
Toe: 0.00 (Factor Spec)

We weren't able to change the front camber because there's no camber bolt there. I'm wondering if that's the same for everyone else?

They didn't get the camber back into spec up front. The drop is mild enough that it just stays in spec after the drop.
