There is a guy with an admiral blue 1994 Z that he lowered all the way around and it looks great. I don't want to go to radical, but some lowering is in order. I'm excited to get my baby personalized a little. I'm also considering a roll bar also, maybe a 6 point, that should help stiffen up the chassis also. Thank you guys for the opinions and feedback.
You may already know this, but if yours is like mine, the rear always sits a bit high right after I let it down off the jacks. But, as soon as it rolls a few feet it squats right back down. (The suspension pulls the rear tires inboard when the wheels are off the ground. Then when the car is lowered, the tires cling to the floor rather than sliding outward to where they are when the car normally sits on the suspension. Rolling the car allows the tires to slide back out as the suspension settles with the weight.)
