1. they won't modify their design to work with the z32 rear fork type
2. custom roll center adjustment is a NO and will remain fixed at the height listed.
I got a few more questions asked and I'll post 'em up as I get answers.

On number two, you can't really go a whole lot farther otherwise you interfere with the axle boot. This is the what Dan from Parts Shop MAX has to say about it:

we disconnected the coilover and jacked up the wheel all the way to take a look at the most extreme clearance situation:
And then we put it back to a normal suspension compression and measured again
It seems like 3/4" drop spindle is the happy medium because it looks like half an inch is totally safe and 1 inch is the max.
with the half inch subframe risers its already a big difference so this should be a great mod for suspension performance on extra low cars.
If we wanted to take it farther we would have to sweep the arm up on the RUCA more or get a custom slim boot for the axle, but I'm betting as is its going to make a huge difference without going any farther.
