Trade S techs for stock springs?

I have H Techs on now but I think I want more of a drop. I have my stock springs in perfect condition. Anyone going back to stock wanna trade S Techs for stock?

the difference between the s-tech and h-techs is very small. In photos you can never tell the difference. I run 350z S-techs and it looks no lower than g35 H-tech If you want to go lower, go with 350z tanabe springs or the Sprint drop springs.

That's a false statement. 350z s-techs will drop you atleast 2" or more, while the G35 h-tech is only 1" drop.

You sure you have the right springs?

^^ He's right. The S techs are a MUCH more noticeable drop. Average drop on H techs is F(0.3"), R(0.2"). Average drop on S techs is about 1.5" That's a big difference.

i have the 350z s techs. You will need a front camber kit to get the alignment right.

Your drop specs are way off from real world values. You will never see a 2" drop with S-techs, i didnt even see a 1.5" drop, and that seems to be the norm. The rear barely moves, thats why people have to do the springmount mod.

its your money. i'd look at the photos again though. For the same price, why not just get springs that really drop you like the 350z tanabes? Either way, dont get the g35 s-techs as the spring rates are weaker than stock.

H-techs


S-techs
