well the topic says it all, how much is your car lowered from the stock position and what kind of spring and shocks you are using, i bet this question has been asked a bunch of times, so i'm sorry for asking again

Well Let's put it this way my car is only 9cm from the ground on a flat surface. My muffler is only 7 1/2 from the ground. I have JIC camber adjustable shocks on the front, and I have Tein Adjustables on the rear with RS-R springs.

i have eibach sportlines which are suppose to drop your car 2.2 from the stock position i say it did a good job with that but there is still wheel well gap in the front.
I have kyb agx shocks/struts

it's not really how much you lower your car, is how much handles you get from it, you can lower your car to the ground w/ the cheapest stuff, and u get "air bag" like ride... or you can have a decent height, such as pro-kit and have handles
but if u want show, hey =) lower it all u want

what do you guys think of using these springs http://rsversion.com/details.asp?ProdID=92 with these shocks http://www.rollhard.com/240sx.htm the KYB AGX

Well if you are going to buy a coil over threaded collar setup to put on AGX's you should go Ground Control.
Otherwise if you want Coilovers go with Tein or JIC Magic
