lowered w/ espelir springs
#61
hey sleek im not asking for specific answers but i was just wondering -was the espelir gt springs alignment very close to stock specs?
sleek i am considering 350z h techs or espelir springs for the G. i would really like some advice from you.
for comfort, looks, and easiest to get to stock alignment would u reccomend espelirs over the h techs?
btw are the espelir linear springs?

i know your not asking me but .....they're really good springs. As far as comfort and looks go they're way better than stock.. a little stiffer but feels reall sporty. .. very subtle drop after they settle. Allignment im not sure yet since i havent done it but i'll let you know in a week heres a few pics of my ride on espelir gt super down springs (sorry for the crap pictures)

does the espelir gt springs for the G drop the car alot more than the 350z h techs?
i am going crazy deciding on what spring to go with guys. ahhh!!!
after looking at sleeks car i want the espelir springs. but theres so much more input on the 350 h techs that it seems more trustworthy to go with. man i dont know. If the espelir gt springs can align just as good as the 350z h techs i guuess i mite go with them.

i had actually already talked to chris at F1 and he recommended these springs.. then a few days later i did a search on espelir and found your thread thanks for the compliments sleek but im not even near to what your g is... yours is super clean man.

With the 350z H-techs, mine is 26" give or take a 1/16" in front and just over 27" in the rear. Some pictures of each wheel well may help us out too. Lots of folks are really on the fence here!
front :
REAR :
hope this helps everyone in the deciding factor, enjoy lmk if i need to take btter pics.
yes the car needs to be washed i know

Yeah these help - thanks!
Here's my analysis: I can read your front tire sizes 245/35/19 - which are the same rolling diameter as my 225/45/18 tires up front. I'm assuming our cars were identical in ride height when they were stock.
My front fenders were at very near 27.0" stock and now they are just at about 26.1"-26.2". My rear fenders were at about 27.5" stock and now are 27.0" with the 350Z H-Techs. This reads out to very nearly 0.8"/0.5" drop (f/r) with the 350Z H-Techs, which is about what the advertised drop was.
By the looks of your photos, your fronts are at about 25.4" which is approximately a 1.6" drop from stock - almost double my H-tech drop. Your rears, however, look like they kept a 0.5" drop like my H-techs.
You did say these were the G35 Espelir GT's right?
I'm curious how much drop others had with the G35 Espelirs...

wait sleek, so your saying that the espelir will get better allignment than the 350z h techs? From pics observations it seems that your fronts are lower than crazy mikes and the rears are identical. Comfort wise, which springs do you think is better?
i guess your springs do lower more than the 350z h techs.

go figure
sorry for the misinformation
i never tried h tech so i cant compare the two, sorry
i still dont regret purchasing these springs though, the stance is very agressive and "sleek"
someone post pics of h techs and we can compare the two!!!
