this is just a question in general about the front dampers. Why has a shock company not created a shorter damper to lower the car? It looks like a good 2 inches could easily be reduced and that would open the flood gates for springs and ride height choices

Does the G37S coupe springs still lower the car 1/2' or is it more now? What about the 370z springs is that still 1" or is that also more now? Thanks.

Thank you for the great info on the site.

I'm about to complete a Z/G conversion for my "03 Sport Sedan and was considering using Non Sport Coupe Coils in the rear because I heard the Coupe Sports are really stiff. If I'm reading the chart you posted correctly, there is no difference between a Sedan Sport Rear Coil and a Coupe Non Sport Coil? If that is the case I guess there is no reason for me to change? Or, would I still get a drop with the same stiffness I currently enjoy?

Thanks for your help.

G35 Coupe "Sport Package"

Thanks!!!
I am also looking for confirmation of this. I have read it posted in several threads I have come across and would like to know for sure. Would make sense as to why my 350Z RS*R Ti2000 did not drop very much in rear, but front is perfect.

Question for you spring experts. I have an 04 x and am currently sitting on 03 Performance Trim 350z springs up front and G coupe springs in the rear. The pictures below show the car prior to swapping the Z springs on the front. Before it was coupe suspension all around. The Z springs brought the front down probably 3/4 to 1" over what you see in the pictures. My question is, what springs could I swap to front and rear to bring the rear (as it sits in the pictures) down another 1" and the fronts (currently about or a little less than an inch lower than the pictures) down another 1.5"? I'm trying to get the car flush without rubbing and I'm about 1.5-2 fingers from tire to wheel well up front and about 1-1.5 fingers to wheel well in the back. Wheels are 18 x 8.5" front and 18 x 9.5" rear. 245/40 tires all around. I know when I had my 350z, I had Tanabe GF210's and it lowered (over the stock Z suspension) the car around 1.5-2" up front. I've read through all the measurements on the first page but with the 2 types of suspension and trying to figure out what lowers what how much more I'm confused, haha. If anybody has some 350z Tanabe GF210s and would want to swap for G or Z springs I've got both complete sets, just let me know, haha. Thanks,
Fletch

FYI the buddy club race specs are no longer a true coilover setup in the rear. Shock/spring are separate like oem setup.
