350z vs g35 TEIN S-TECH springs

do both of these offer the same height of drop on a g35 coupe? or is the 350z version lower, if so, is it a big difference?

drop is different... spring rate is different...

if there was no difference, why would they make two versions and not just say one is made for bot?

g35 s-techs:
rates: f/r 6.4/4.9kg
drop: f/r -1.2/-0.9

350z s-techs:
rate: f/r 6.9/7.2kg
drop: f/r -1.2/-1.1

when i had the 350z S-tech i waited 2 weeks for alignment, and didn't get back into specs. the drop is BASICALLY the same, but the spring rates are much better.

i'm aware of the difference, but i'm just wondering if there's a difference in height... no need to roll your eyes.

yes, youll want to get one. generally, anything more than an inch will require a camber kit to get you back into specs.

so do you think the 350z ones would be a better buy because it's stiffer than OEM?

The 350z stechs will drop your G more than the g35 stechs.
I recommend you get a rear camber kit.

You've already gotten the drop height question answered. But I have a question.

Was your G35 coupe delivered on oem 17, 18, or 19 inch wheels?
