Has anyone used Tein Super Racing coilovers on a g35?

hello i am trying to see if anyone has used the Tein Super Racing Monotube coilovers with the dual edfc on a g35 coupe
before i start takeing everything appart, on tein usa site it only shows that part number for the 350z so for some reason
they believe that it will not work for the g35..

http://www.bodykitwholesale.com/p245...duct_info.html

i bought them off a friend who only used them for his 350z show car if they wont work for my G i will be
forced to sell them they are worth around $3000 plus the cost of each edfc.


if anyone has any experience with this coilover set up. i would like to hear your comments

I've never used them, but they will fit your car.

With spring rates of 16K/16K I believe these would be brutal for a daily driver. I know I wouldn't be happy with a ride that stiff.

yea they are 16/16, but it has the edfc so i was thinking of i set it on the softest setting it would be ok.

I may sell them and get a different setup. what coilovers do you recommend, i know bilstein's are a
good ride so i have read up on them but apparently they don't go low enough, i just want it low enough
so when i figure out my new wheel set up that it will be a good comfortable ride and be able to look flush.

How low are you trying to go? If you aren't going for a slammed look most coilovers will be fine.

i think i want something like this,

http://www.stancenation.com/2010/04/...-infiniti-g35/

i will have to look into bc racing coilovers then, and compare costs, i still need to pick up
camber arms as well. i live in Canada and customs fees on heavy items kill us lol .i want it to be a
decent ride and low at the same time, i know that's two different things altogether but some coilovers
ride better then others if im correct.

what would you suggest

If the springs are stiff as fvck, it won't matter how soft you set the dampening, the car will still ride rough.

If you're not concerned with being slammed and want to stay around $1200 or less the Stance LX and Tanabe Pro5 coilovers are a good choice with ride quality in mind. I have the Tanabe's and am very happy with them, they ride great. You can step up a level and look at HKS and the upper end Teins for example but you're looking at the ~ $2000 range. If you are looking under $1000 my first choice would be the BC Racing coils.

However, remember that you get what you pay for. A budget coil won't perform like a high end no matter how bad you want it to.

the lower the cost the better but like you say you get what you pay for so i don't mind if they are anywhere from 1000-1800
because i will be selling my tein super racing coilovers,
i was looking at tein flex but some say they are not that good. some say to go with the kw v3's they are a little pricey but i can get them at a good price, there are so many makes out there for coilovers its hard to pick one,i just want good ride quality and at the same time be able to go as low as i need to make my car look flush,

Dont bother with the High end Coils if you are going to dump it

Just get a set of Stance or Megans and call it a day
