Lowering car

Hello guys im really new to the g community i just bought a 2012 infiniti g37 s coupe and well i been debating on lowering my g just alittle probably like 1 inch just to have a clean low ,1 Great Used Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 225/45R19 225/45/19 2254519 are my front tires with the stock sport rims im fearly new to tuning cars and all that stuff , i thought buying coilovers was all there needed to be but i heard you need to buy more stuff , what do you guys recommend and what are all the parts i will need so I don’t wear out my tires or anything else , my budget is around $500-800 , this is my first ever tune car , also i was wondering if test pipes are worth it and what brands? I bought the gen 3 intakes and a tuner chip but that’s about it , and well i dont want to have a very loud noise more of a clean tone , thank you guys

That's a tight range for coilovers although there are cheap options out there like Raceland or the super basic Tein lineup. However if you're looking to just lower an inch or so, look into lowering springs. People say you "need" aftermarket adjustable camber and toe arms and make upper/lower control arms along with coilovers but it's more of a "you should" to make alignment easier which will have the proper wear on your tires.
Any test pipes unless they're art pipes will make your exhaust loud and smelly

i hope this is how you reply to comments but thanks alot for the feedback bro , soo what you’re saying is that i should be perfectly fine if i go for the lowering springs? And what else would i need and what brands your recommend for my budget? I don’t want cheap stuff but also not to expensive

so your saying art pipes won’t make super loud exhaust ?? Is it the same perfomance ? If so which ones you recommend that compliment the stock exhaust and the g37 stock sound

Wait, what?

​​​​​A proper tune is the only way to avoid "smelly" exhaust fumes.
The Art brand's test pipe design is about noise reduction and flow.
​And nothing to do with smelly emissions.

And OP, ditch the chip.
Only way to tune the VQ so far is with software.
look into UpRev's Osiris and EcuTek
