I have a 04 coupe. Yesterday i installed a set of Tanabe GF210's for the 350z. Just the springs. Ride is rougher (no biggie) BUT the front passenger side ONLY is making a loose, rattle sounds, when i hit bumps. I have double checked everything, nuts, bolts, spring sitting correctly. Car drives fine, just the noise, ANY IDEAS???

 

Thanks for the help, it is fixed

 

any pictures of the car after the drop?
did you install a camber kit?

 

What was it?

 

No kit installed. After they settle a little i'll check them out, but they look great as of now. I'll try and take pics tomorrow. It is a HUGE drop on 17's, BUT I LOVE IT.

Wasnt aware that i could tighten the shock nut that holds the spring on even more once the car was completely back on the ground. Fixed it perfectly.

 

did u get an alignment after the install?
if no, does it drive fine?

 

No alignment yet. Been driving for almost a week, no prob. everything i read agrees that there shouldn't be an issue with driving, just might mess with tire wear if you go to long without alignment.

 

Well I took the HUGE challenge of putting 350z Tanabe GF210's on my G35 Coupe. WAS NOT FUN, but I got it done and LOVE IT. The springs have been on for almost a week, and already give it a nice drop, but should settle a little more. I can do a springmount mod to lower the back another 1/2 inch, to even it out. I have nothing done to the car but the springs and the rims. The rims are ol' skool JDM 17's. Got a good deal on them with good tires on them. They have been painted a couple times (to see what I like) and still don't know how I want to powdercoat them. Hope to get some 25mm spacers all around to make them more flush. The car hasnt been washed in a week and the center caps aren't even on car. Took pics to show drop.

 

Here is the before.

 

noone

 

wow, i just installed my GF-210s too and my rears aren't that high.

btw, what was the noise you're talking about?

 

Wasnt aware that i could tighten the shock nut that holds the spring on even more once the car was completely back on the ground. Fixed it perfectly.

What rims do you have? Mine are only 17's. Any pics?

 

i'm on 20's.

 

20's would make a huge difference on the gap. did you do springmount mod?

 

no i didn't.

did you make sure your rears are seated right?
