help in choice , tokico hp z or g35 coupe shocks?

ok currently im running the stechs with f&r spc camber kit and sway bar kit, ...but still running stock shocks on my coupe, i understand that the z tokicos run stiffer and they are slightly shorter then the g35 ones...i love my current drop hieght and dont want it higher so my questions are about ride comfort ....how harsh is the ride if i go with the z Tokicos then the g35 ones ? Or should i be better off with the g35 tokicos

Definitely the blues for the Z. I've had them on my G for a few years now. They ride very well.

I've been running Tokico D Specs for over a year, since they're adjustable you can have the ride anyway you like. They're for the G35 coupe and I'm lowered over an inch on all four corners, factory ride...love em!

be careful with Tokico blues. They blow or wear out prematurely if ran with lowering springs.
Mine only lasted 70k when OEM lasted 90k.
I'm in search of new shocks now.

that's BS considering that stock ones lasted 90k

Tokico blues are no good with lowered springs.
KYB is a much better OEM replacement shock for lowered spring (at least that's what I read)
