The 350Z H-techs are very close in spring rate to the stock values, except slightly stiffer in rear. The G35 H-tech's are softer than stock.

The 350Z springs drop the Z .3/.2, but it drops the G an additional .5 on top of that.

350Z H-Techs are a fair amount stiffer than stock....358/375 (F/R) vs 314/342.

Did you swap out your dampers too? I've got some Z H-Tech's coming for my Sedan, but I ordered Tokico D-Specs as well, since I've heard that the stock sport struts won't keep up.

How's yours driving so far? Any notable differences in handling?

PS You're car looks awesome! I love the gold on Ivory.

The car feels a lot less bouncy on rough roads, and it takes turns a lot flatter now. Feels good w/ my Nismo sway bars.

G-Mann: naw man, it was stock height for the longest...got sick of the slight gap I had. It's almost perfect now. Just hoping it settle a bit lower in the coming weeks.

I see a slight camber problem in front, but I'm going to let the springs settle first before getting an alignment.
