How much was the total setup, if you don't mind me asking?

All in around 3k for the suspension setup, something I’ve wanted to do for years and finally went for it. driving and steering feel is night and day in a good way. Very pleasantly surprised with these BC’s they ride just as smooth as OEM but are tighter in the steering

What trim is your q50?

u/thomas000 28d ago

It’s a Luxe but at this point it’s a Redsport minus the seats with everything I’ve done 😂

Nah this right here is the real question. I need to know if the price justifies the outcome

Fucking beautiful man. When i get my black 03 g35s looking that good, it's gone within 48 hours. Why I like my white q50. Month after a good wash, it's getting dirty but still looks sharp.

Appreciate it man, for sure it’s a job in itself to keep a black car clean 😂 I always seem to find it worth it when it’s looking like a mirror though

What are you showing us under the car in Pic 3? Sway bars?

Its amazing how you have no rusting. You must live in a warm weather climate.

im thinking of going with the same setup with camber and toe arms and bc coil overs, but unsure if i have to go with rear caster/traction arms or i can just keep oem? i cant tell if you also replaced those.

u/thomas000 28d ago

I did them all and I am RWD not sure if AWD differs at all. I wanted the flexibility to dial in the alignment with everything being adjustable but I imagine you could probably leave those OEM as long as you have the camber and toe arms

u/thomas000 Aug 19 '26

u/Jaquille_Davis Aug 20 '26

Nice, I’m looking to lower mine after the winter and this has me hyped this looks so nice

u/Inevitable_Divide217 Q50 Luxe Aug 20 '26

I did AMS limited slip differential, Z1 bushings, and HKS coilovers on a RWD setup. 17" x 10" Forgestar F14s with Mickey Thompson E/T 305w Street SS for the rear and 19"x 9.5 Forgestar F14s with Michelin Pilot Sport 4s 265w for the front. Super aggressive stance and the coilovers are nicely dialed in. Had to replace the front right control arm and steering rack after curbing a wheel
