Ok G35 H-Tech Owners chime in!

I have searched and read and read some more.

I just bought a 2006 G35 coupe with RAS and Sport Suspension (Factory 19s).

I am looking for a set of springs that will lower the car ever so slightly. I really dont want to use a camber kit. I also do know I WILL have to get it aligned.


Here are my choices:

THe G coupe H-Techs
Pros: It doesnt lower it very much
It is made for the coupe

Cons: I am worried because the spring rates are softer then the stock sport suspension on the G35 Coupe, so I will lose some handling...........if the handling statement is true.

The 350Z H-Techs
Pros: It will lower it a little more, but not very much
It has stronger spring rates than the G style H-Techs. So, it SHOULD and I stress SHOULD handle better then with the G style springs.

Cons: It possible being TOO low.



I am running a set of 19" Volk SF winnings (19X9.5 front 19 offset and 19X10.5 rear 17 offset)
I am rolling my fenders as soon as she arrives.


So, my question is, will I lose in the handling department buying the G style H-techs because of the softer spring rate then the STOCK Sport suspension?

Any thoughts?

THanks

Joey

I have the H-tech springs and it ends up lowering [ after a few months ] about 3/4 inch and ride is a little stiffer than stock
