Which shocks would work better for me?

My car is dropped on revised 350Z springs & my oem sedan springs are bouncing around like crazy & really pissing me off so it's time for stiffer shocks.

I'm looking to stay around the $300-$350 range so I think I'll be getting Tokico HP Blues, now should I get the G Sedan versions or the 350Z versions?

Also if you have any other sugestions on shocks then lmk I don't want to drop my car to much lower & since all coils give a 1.5inch drop at thr highest setting then they are out of the question...for now

I don't think there are much differences with the Tokico HP Blues. Just go for the G35 sedan or coupe ones.

I'm pretty sure the the shock is shorter on the 350Z versions so I would go with those since you have Z springs.

Agree on the 350Z shocks. Since I ran them on my sedan w/350Z springs.

yea i put them on the sedan. They ride a tad bit stiffer than the OEM shocks. But cornering improved a lot. The car use to have alot of bounce coming out or into a drive way and over speed bumps, but after changing the shocks i dont feel them any more.

Did you have your OEM springs with TOKICO blues shock or you upgraded your springs, Sam?

I have the revised 350z springs with the tokico blues. I just replaced the 350z shocks about 2 months ago with the blues.
