ok..i finally got just the 03 350z springs installed..there is no bouncy feeling at all...the ride is pretty much the same..except lowered..

I put on the low profile tires w/o the drop..and there was roughly about a 5 finger gap..now 2 in rear and 2 1/2 in fronts..

I am very pleased with the results..

Very nice. Looks sweet. I have heard about and seen the H Techs on the sedan. Good call. I've decided to go with the z spring set up to start. Cya

I love the ride, car handles great and still is soft over the bumps. H-techs take another 1/2" off the 1" drop the stock z springs provide and stiffen up the car a little more, I am in love with these springs. In my opinion - the perfect drop with some 19" wheels.

i prefer the Z setup to the H-techs, the fender gap on z suspension front and back looks more even, I don't like the way that the extra drop in back makes the front look out of proportion.

I seen a photo opportunity and took it I have always wanted a photo on some train tracks and now I have some. I too am concerned about safety and if you look close my wife is in the drivers seat and I can actually see 1 mile down the track. So no worries

what about using 350z springs in front and coupe springs in the back, this would even out the look of increased fender gap in the front....

for some people (which may include myself), that would be too much of a hassle to find the parts you need off of others.... cause most will only sell the whole set of springs and not just the front or rears...

if you have to buy a set from each use the parts you need then you'll have an even more undesirable set of springs laying around the garage (front coupe springs and rear 350z springs.... who wants that?). just stating my 2 cents....

Check the private party classifieds under suspension for them. Also, try my350z.com.

The revised Z springs did not drop my coupe in the rear so I would say that's a waste of time to think about mix and match. In the front I got about a 1/4" drop.
