Help! I need new shocks and springs.

I have a 2k4 G coupe with 70,000 miles and I need to replace the shocks. I figured I may as well change the springs at the same time. I am looking for a mild dorp (there are way to many dips, steep drive ways and speed bumps in my neighborhood). There are so many choices and I am no suspension expert.

I realy need some help picking the right setup for my G.

Tein 350Z H-techs and Tokico HP's. Cheap, effective.

No, you will be able to get the rear camber/toe just barely into spec. The front will be out by a tenth to 2 tenths of a degree but nothing major.

I'll be putting up my z-htechs for sale very soon. Also have my stock shocks in case you want those..

I loved my z-htechs ride, great quality while helping to eliminate some of that ugly wheel gap. Oh and actually a driveable height....

How much of a drop does the 350z H-techs provide? Looking for a drop too. Maybe a little more than the OP.

that is how I looked on z-htechs, sorry don't have many more of that setup unfortunately. But if you run a search there is a whole thread of people with h-techs and pics.
