I'm posting this because sooner or latter someone is going to see the ad's on ebay. At first I didn't believe it, but I checked out KYB's 2006 catalog and sure enough their is a 350Z fitment.

First thing, the GR2 is a oem replacement and is not designed for use with stiffer lowering springs. I've had run in's with the shock on other application's and it's alway's the same story. People buy them because they are cheap and run them with springs they shouldn't. Tokico D-specs are still your go to shock for that and worth every penny they cost over a GR2.

Where I see a market for them.
Sedan's with oem Z springs that have oem sedan shocks. You'd get a set of shocks that should be valved like oem revised Z shocks with a warranty avoid any possible issues associated with treading into the used market.

Coupes that don't have the 05+ sport suspension, the GR2 should firm up the suspension a bit since it's valving would mirror the Z revised shocks.

I may invest in a set to test with a set of oem Z springs I have on hand and then resell them when I'm done just like I did with 350Z H-techs and Tokico D-spec 350Z D-spec springs.

 

Thanks for sharing this. Good to know. I'm wondering if KYB intends to release the AGX line for the 350Z/G35.

 

Think these would be OK, for a G sedan with Stock spring height? or would it not work?

 

Your welcome.

Would have made a whole lot more sense to come out with the AGX since the Z is classed as a sport car in most circles. IIRC most AGX application's have shortened bodies and piston shafts.

 

I don't see why not, would would be compressing the front springs more on install with a spring compressor since oem based Z shocks have 3/4" shorter body lengths and piston shaft lengths. D-specs are still going to be valved better and offer adjustability. Though in your case the GR-2's would still firm things up a bit.
