well my friend has a b13 with agx's and the g's ride is nothing like that..lol

 

Hmm... Unless ive read it wrong it appears Z front springs have never changed from 314 so I dont see why the front would be any diff. Like I said if the front is no diff ill throw in the whole assemblies from my buddies 07Z and Ill just locate the appropriate rear coupe springs and keep my stock sport strut for the rear.

I really dont want it to ride any rougher, Been there done that a million times.

 

i never said the front was different, the z shocks are different then the G shocks is all i said, the z front springs are all the same

its not gonna ride as softly as a stock g either way. its not like my rsx with buddy club N+'s..lol. its probably about the same as my fiance's civic ex as far as bumpyness

 

Hey 006 no worries just trying to make sure I get the right stuff. So if I add the full 07Z front setup should I add the 07 rear Z strut w/coupe 427s or unrevised coupe springs. I have access to 07 Rear struts as well. ( should front / rear be matched struts )

Im probaly nit picking just trying to be 100% Just wanna retain the ride quality. A little stiffness like OEM M3 is fine just not bone jarring.

 

just throw on the full fronts and the coupe rear springs..probably be fine

 

Cool and not bother changing the rear struts to 07Z struts?...

Looks like its time to just locate un-revised coupe rears and ill be set!

THANKS GUYS!

 

the rears are easy so u can change them later if u don't like the handling or whatever

 

Awesome! Off to locate the rears and start my install.

 

My 04.5 350Z springs were EXACTLY the same as 06 coupe SPORT springs. IDK about the regular coupe

 

^ +1 on that. Getting the Sedan springs out is the hardest part. Once you put Z springs in, they're much easier to get back out if you need to change them out.
When I put the full Z setup on, it was only because I had got revised sport coupe springs that were exactly the same as rear z springs anyway. I was considering changing them out for other coupe rears later, but I like the Z springs enough that I'm not going to worry about it.

BTW, here's the ride height:

 

Sport coupe rears = revised (2004.5+) Z rears, both are 427lb spring rate. Your sedan rear shocks will be happier with base coupe springs, and your ride will be less stiff. Given your goals, I would go with the base coupe rears.

For the sake of reference (and of course pic whoring), my G/Z stance:

 

Swivel,

Thanks, Thats what it appears im going to do :

Base coupe rears ( which match the stiffness of my stock rears )

and 350Z fronts ( it appears all year of front Z springs are the same )

Im hoping if I go with a Z front strut as well it wont be any stiffer than just throwing the springs on my strut.

( my friend will sell my a whole 07Z front setup assembled )

Your stance looks perfect!

 

5 pages! Wow. I'm reading confusing statements here. I'm trying to keep this simple. I have an '06 Sedan non-sport. I just picked up 350Z shocks/struts. Is there anything on them to tell me whether they're revised/unrevised? If they're revised shocks/struts, what springs am I looking for to make the car level and not ride too harsh? I want it to be a subtle lower stance with no aggressiveness to the ride quality. I don't want to mix/match spring types. Either all 350Z springs or all sport springs. I do plan to get bigger rims (like 18's or 19's) in the future, so I want this to fit right the first time.

 

What year Z did they come from? What dots were on the rear springs?

 

That's what I'm asking. Is there a mark or something on the Z shocks/struts to tell me what year or if they're revised or not? I'm looking to get springs. I don't have any yet. I'm looking into which springs are the best setup for putting on the G to lower it and not lose comfort. I don't mind a bit more handling and responsiveness, but many aftermarket springs get too aggressive and makes the ride plain old uncomfortable.
