Arrow A Question for the Suspension Gurus

I'm thinking about purchasing 2006 350z springs to install on my 2003 G35 coupe. My question to the knowledgeable would of course be the obvious, how much will this lower my car and will there be a severely noticeable change in the dampening?

Its not worth the install and the allignment price. I recommend getting some aftermarket springs.

Will lower the front about .5-.6. No height change to the rear.

This mod is actually BETTER than some drop springs if using the REVISED higher spring rate 314/427. Not only are they stiffer than the non-sport, they are LINEAR vs progressive as with some aftermarket drop springs.

Many of the aftermarket drop are actually SOFTER than the sport springs and have a progressive rate vs a more desirable linear rate.

350z (revised) springs are great for people who don't want the slammed look or who drive in placed that are not lowered car friendly and want a stiffer spring rate upgrade from the non sport springs.
