who all have the coupe springs for the sedan?

Are the coupe springs really worth putting on? i know that they give a .5 inch drop all around. does the drop reduce body roll? if u guys have ny pics of coupe springs on sedans, put them up.

Are JUST the coupe springs (front and rear) worth it? No. z springs up front and coupe in the rear with z suspension all around is the better setup. Yes the setup will reduce body roll in turns and squat during heavy acceleration. But you know this man... search. Topic has been covered SO many times.

I originally had coupe springs all around. Got 0 drop in the front and .5 in the rear. Was strange.

I put z springs up front afterwards. Got a .75 inch drop in the front now.

Putting coupe springs is just not worth the effort and results. Go for 350z shocks and springs

I did a complete, springs and shocks coupe on all 4 corners but the front
was still a bit high so went with just z springs up front. work out good..for me.

That's a lot of work for 0.5" of drop.

I'm sure this has been discussed somewhere before, but I've searched and haven't found exactly what I need.

I have an '05 X and would like to do a very mild drop (approx. 1"). From reading I know the X's are heavier and would drop more than a RWD with the same springs. My question is if OEM Coupe springs drop a RWD .5", would they drop an X 1"? Also, would I need to change out my shocks/struts while I was at it?
