Nice deal. I don't think Eibach lowers more than 1.5" though? If you are on a sport suspension the sport shocks might get you by.

That price is for the cheapest kit they have, it is not the price for the G35/350z.

If you put in the vehicles specs they list what they offer; the same Eibach springs for the G35 are over $200 from sears.

i'd rather do the revised z spring/shock swap. that is less than $100 for parts. i paid $100 CDN last year. labour (unless DIY) is extra.

don't forget that you should get an alignment done a couple weeks after a swap is done. that means the $100 is actually more like $200.

Oh, nice find. And yeah, the cheapest most reliable way is to find a coupe/Z owner looking to sell their oem setup. Because it won't lower the car to the point of typically needing expensive camber correction suspension parts

Check if they have the ones that will fit the G. They have a specific model number that you can get from Eibach's site.

The 65 listed is probably for a Honda Civic, or something along those lines. If you search for the specific g35 they usually all run over 200, but the cheapest I've found at least for the 2nd gen is on tirerack.com
