Quick Suspension Question

So, i've been looking around the forums for a little while, and can't seem to find an answer to my question, so i figured i'd just ask.

I'm going to be putting 350z HR springs on my g35 and I plan on getting Tokico HP blue's that I can put on when I replace the springs. So, do I need to get the g35 version of the Tokico's or do I need to get the 350z HR version since I'm using springs from an HR?

Thanks

i believe the struts for the G35 and 350Z's are the same. the springs are different as far as spring rates and drop amount. dont quote me on that though

They have different part numbers so I would assume the cartridge size is different and most likely the valving. I am replacing my oem struts & shocks with tokico blues as well. I have z springs and plan on getting the z struts and shocks. I saw a thread a short time ago where the rear tokicos for the G35 were actually longer than the oem ones.

So you're getting 350z tokico's?

That is my plan. I want the struts/shocks to match the springs they were designed for. From what I read on here, about half get the G and the other half get the Z version.
