Bilstein B16 PSS10 / 2013 G37s coupe

Perhaps there is someone out there who is running the Bilstein B16 PSS10 suspension kit. The search box wore me out. I am considering this suspension for my 2013 G37s coupe and wondering if I could get any first hand feedback. don't want the car slammed, just want about an inch drop up front, and about the same rear. The only other modifications to date are a set of Eibach sway bars, and a Cusco front strut brace. This is not a track car, but may see a bit of track duty in the future. I am also considering the KW V3 setup, but the hassle on rear upper adjustment makes me hesitate. At a one inch drop will I need an adjustable upper A arm, or any rear links? Thanks

What's up Mikekugel,
I just recently install the B16 kit on my 2011 IPL coupe. If you just want to drop the car an inch, I would suggest that you not go with this set-up. I currently have the car set at pretty much the highest setting that I can get it and you can barely get a couple of fingers into the wheel well. On a positive note, I like this kit because it really transforms the handling of the car. I also installed the hotchkis sway bars and the Cusco front strut brace. Best of luck finding a set-up that works for you and I hope this information has been helpful.

Thank you,
I feel that Bilstein, as much as I like,,, screwed the pooch with this setup. It might be just fine for the track, but on the street? Who wants to be scraping their car all over the place. KW looks better to me,,, still thinking as Nissan did a pretty good job on the G37s coupe.

If you get some time please post a review in the review section w/ any pics and more details if you can. Always great to share info on setups that aren't common and in this case, a higher quality source as well!
