Suspension Question

So, currently I have an 03 sedan that has non-sport springs and tokico blues shocks. Can I run G35 coupe sport springs on my tokico blues or is this not a good idea? Thanks in advance.

Like deemo said you will be fine. You can run any coupe, z or sedan springs u want but your shock life will lower a tad due to the constant compression

Is there any benefit to upgrading to an oem spring with a higher spring rate without dropping the car? Or is best to drop the car and get a higher spring rate with my current setup?
