how low can you go?

A&Q about 350Z
Q:

hi all
well i am soon to receive my coilovers, which drop the car from 45mm to approximately 85mm
i know that is seriously low
how low can you go on a MK3 Valver without hitting any issues?
will be running 17/205/45 as well
A:

brave man ;) mine is -35mm at the moment and the back box seems to bang the rear beam.
im sure you get to a point where the lower you go the more incorrect the geometry gets. dont forget you do need some travel also lol
if you use the car for fun only, then im sure you can go really low, but if its used daily (like my 60 miles a day) then going too low will be a massive compromise and make the car lose the fun factor
A:

I'm about 80ish mm on Koni coilies and ran 17s for a bit and had no problems. Only when I went to 9x16s all round then I had to get arches rolled.
With coilies you can play around to your hearts content. So just try everything out

cool cheers guys, i look fwd to be totaly slammed
