Basically I'm a former 350z owner and i just got a g35 coupe i want to mod it but i'd like to do it right the first time.. on my 350 i had eibach prokit and the drop and ride was perfect.. the g35 seems a bit higher so im looking at these:

Tanabe DF210 G35 COUPE progressive springs 1.7”/1.3” drop on G35 coupe, G35 sedan drop will be higher
Spring rates in LBS 308/353
Stiffer or softer then oem springs by F-2% R+3% (see note at top)
Transfers +5% roll stiffness to front

from the info it seems that the spring stiffness is almost stock.. can anyone give me some input on these? and can you guys w/ other setups post pics?

i'm looking to pretty much get no wheel gap all the way around.

heres my thread on espiler springs and mikes h techs w/ pix

https://g35driver.com/forums/brakes-suspension/71144-lowered-w-espelir-springs.html

I've got some more pictures posted here: 350z H-Techs

It lowered me by about .8" in front and .6" in the rear now. I don't think I would like to go any lower as the roads and driveways aren't exactly level around here. You can see the photo of my front end clearance is about 6.5" for the lip and about 5" for the black part underneath. My splash guards behind the front wheels literally have about 3.5" of ground clearance.

Another consideration for you: the amount of drop you propose will get you into alignment troubles without some aftermarket equipment. Off the top of my head, the only springs you can get w/o buying aftermarket alignment kits are the H-Techs (I recommend the 350z version), G35 Espelir GT, or the OEM 350z springs. There may be others, but these 3 are by far the most popular.

Good luck!

new set of wheels 20s whith tein springs the tires is sitting right under the fenders preety.

Sleek: Did your car settle any after those pics were taken? Car still looks fairly high.

Mike: Same question? How is the ride w/ the 350Z springs?

Just to clarify, I have H-Techs for the 350Z. I just measured yesterday, and the ride hight is still the same as when the pictures were taken, but they've only been in for 2 weeks now. The ride is pretty similar to stock, just barely stiffer. If you'll read the entire thread that sleek6mt posted, you'll see the espelir gt springs dropped his car considerably more than the 350z H-Techs did mine, especially up front...

did u see the 2nd page?

mine is lower than crazy mikes setup



thats a quik pic

Whoa that settles a lot! Looks way better than page 1.. do you have any scraping issues w/ speed bumps and what not?

nope

but sometimes my exhaust piping on steep driveways

nice, you can always get a set of coilovers and adjust to whatever setup you want.

yeah... but i'd rather not spend that much on coils and get something else
