Right now I'm on coupe DF210's and they'really not quite stiff enough for me. The drop is almost perfect, if not about 1/4-1/2" higher than I'd like to be. Any ideas/suggestions? I do not want to go to coils, as I love my DSpecs.

 

So you're at a 2.2"/1.8" drop with soft spring rates and you'd like to go to possibly 2.5"-2.8"/2.1"-2.4" drop with stiffer spring rates?

I couldn't find any 350z springs that drop you that low but before I went coils I was seriously looking at 350z H&R's. Stiffer than stock sport springs with a nice drop in the 2.3"/2.1" range. This dude is dropped on 350z H&R's:

You have to go coils to do this man, Springs really aren't going to give you the rigidity you're looking for.

 

^ Even with his D-specs and their adjustability? Is it because they weren't designed specifically for whatever aftermarket springs he would use them with?

 

Basically, like the springs can only be set to the height they're made with any extra being dead coils that sit at the bottom, you can only stiffen a spring so much without any kind of preload adjustment or spring length adjustment and have it work as effective stiffening.

D-specs also don't offer very "stiff" settings even at their sitffest dampening setting. Koni yellows on the other hand will go stiff as hell to the point where it feels like you're being kicked in the chest on hard dips.

Brandon, look into HSD coils. They are one stiff as hell coilover and you can get them for like $1000 shipped new.

 

I'm on 350z stechs and its firm as hell. 390/400lb springs. Took my bounce away completely and its over a 2 inch drop

 

Forgot I had posted this thread. JaE35, what kind of "bounce" did you have? Generally "bounce" is from blown/worn shocks & struts, not springs.

My car isn't bouncy at all...well, not in a bad way at least. The D-Specs are plenty stiff enough, the springs just aren't quite there. I'll probably end up staying where I'm at for now and look into some HiperMax's come spring time.

Anyone have any experience with HM's on a sedan? Or anything other than a Tein, Stance, F&F, Megan, or MSU coil? If I had my choice, I'd pick up the ProDrive Japan Z33 coils, but I'm not dropping $4k on coilovers...that's insane.
