^IDK about the shocks/struts
Best bet would be to ask ther person you got them from what year the Z was. Only problem is if it's 04 you'll have to figure out if it's the half year or not.
If the rear springs from the Z they originally came off of have 1 purple dot and 2 red dots then it's revised suspension.

^I was under the impression that the damping on the shocks was different for the revised suspension.

yeah but if he has the complete suspension, revised or not, it will work fine

i think the problem is mixing the revised rear springs with g struts

So any year Z spring set works? What would I need to get to keep the G level front to rear?

Z springs in front (any year will do)
Non-sport coupe springs in back (any shocks except non-sport sedan shocks)

Why non-sport coupe? Is there that big of a spring rate difference between the sedan and coupe for non-sport?

Hello GAU-8,

All this info is in the thread :

For spring colors specs and rates etc see page 10
https://g35driver.com/forums/brakes-...on-pix-10.html

This whole thread is for running Z/G Coupe spring setups not aftermarket springs. All Z front springs are the same as G Sport Suspension spring rates. Now on G Coupes and Z's they went to a revised spring rate I believe in 2005 or so+ when they offered 19" rims and the rates went up.

If you go with NON REVISED Z or G Coupe ( NON SPORT ) you keep your spring rates the same as your G Sedan has and still attain the drop your looking for.

You can goto REVISED but you will have a stiffer spring and would require rear struts that match. Not your stock non sport or sport struts.

Hope this helps.

^A sport coupe has revised z springs in the back. If you're going to do that, you might as well go z all the way around.

Maybe this will help: http://www.nfspmotorsports.com/forum...php?topic=51.0

So you linked me back to this thread? Lol! Page 10 means nothing to me since I'm at 50 posts per page. So G coupe non-sport springs or Z unrevised springs front/rear should work? As I wrote previously, I don't want any aftermarket parts. I found out from the seller that I have 05 Z shocks/struts. I do want to be able to upgrade wheels at a later time.

^Then get Z springs for the front (all are the same), and non-sport coupe springs for the back.
