2003 Infiniti g35 coupe
[QUOTE=bsowhat1;6383433]My previous setup: 2004 G35 coupe with Tein 350z H-Tech springs and Tokico Spec-D struts. SPC front camber kit, rear toe bolts and rear camber arms. Initially the car was lowered 3/4" up front and only 1/4" rear. I performed the rear spring mount mod to get 3/4" lowering in the rear. This setup handled great but absolutely sucked from a ride quality standpoint. The front was OK but the rear would bottom out and rebound excessively on rough roads which we have a lot of. Increasing the dampening helped to control the excessive rebound but that would stiffen the ride excessively from a compression standpoint. I may be getting old but I hated the bumpy ride. My modded Evo rode better. My G is a daily driver and NOT a track car so started looking for something that rode better. I have previous experience with Swift springs (Evo) and the spring improved both handling and ride over stock. So I debated getting either the G35 or 350Z Swift springs. Ultimately I decided to go with spring meant for my car rather than the Z.

Despite the lack of reviews on this site for the G35 Swift springs, I went ahead and bought them. Some say the lower than stock spring rates are undesirable. I disagree. I think the Swift engineers know what they are doing. The springs are awesome. Combined with the Tokico struts, they handle nearly as well as the stiffer Tein springs but the ride quality is even better than stock despite the lowered ride. I will measure the exact lowering once the springs settle in the stock rubber mounts. I also installed unmodded rear spring mounts.[/QUOT
how did u get the rear to go lower?
