Are there any after market shocks or the x coupe to pair with the prokit?

There is a thread where people are trying to generate interest for the production of Swift springs for the G37x. I think we should say, "yes please."

The Tanabe's look nice but I don't know how they ride:

My vote is Eibachs then. Here's what mine looked like before I took them off. They were considerably quieter than the BC coils from what I remember.

This is a great thread I think for all of us X coupe guys. I feel like I'm always looking around for ideas and specs for my X in random places. Lt8Che that build looks beautiful! Very impressive, way to rep the X community! Here's mine as it sits so far. I'm hoping by next season it'll have a little bit more of a facelift.

No Pix tonite.

2010 G37x Coupe - Slate blue - Premium+ Nav Pkgs.

Current Mods:

Stillen Grounding Kit
Stillen Aluminum Crank Shaft Pulley
Stillen Cat Back Exhaust
Stillen Gen 3 Intakes ( just on last week)
Stillen Braided Stainless Steel Brake Lines

Where in New Mexico are you located? Also where do you plan on getting the tune?

Thanks! 7AT, I'm planning on doing the valve body upgrade, torque converter upgrade, and flex plate. I have the GTM AWD kit, I think the turbos are the same size as their stage 2 kit.

Wheels are Work Gnossis GS-1 20x9 +38 all around wrapped in Michelin PSS 245/35/20. Suspension mods are Eibach pro-kit to lower it / SPC camber kits to get aligned / Hotchikis Sway bars for turns The BBK is the Akebono BBK with drilled/slotted rotors.

I had a camber kit installed just to get it back to the ideal alignment. I just really don't like excessive negative camber. You could probably get by without them though, I've seen plenty of people say the Eibachs don't create too much camber after the drop.

I did drive in the snow with them for a couple winters in northern IL. No major issues, just have to be mindful of snow/ice blocks in the middle of the road.

yaa ive had problems with camber wear before i just really dont wana have to buy the springs for under 300 dollars then have to spend almost 700.00 on a camber kit i just want a modest drop just to ease the wheel gap...and also what are people doing here just mating them with stock shocks? there are no aftermarket shocks at all to mate the springs with for the x coupe?
