The front on a car with an automatic transmission will usually settle a bit more than the front on a car with a manual tranny...my best guess is that automatics usually weigh more.

I think that any drop you will get is because the 350 is lighter, the spring rate is lower.

My pics in my garage show the unrevised springs on a 2007 AT. Front is what it is, rear has a 3/4 cut out of the springmounts.

The pics are unrevised, which I found out AFTER I posted those. Thanks for reminding me, I need to change that.

Question: What are the paint markings on your springs? Both front and rears.

Also, 20mm spacers all around, 275/35 tires on rear.

OEM. I'm just trying things out and much easier and cheaper to try 350z's first.

How do you like them? Which ones did you get? I ask because according to the below, the rears are soft...

Tein H-tech 350z linear springs .3”/.2” drop on 350Z G35 drop will be higher
Spring rates in LBS 358/375

Tein H-tech G35 (fronts are progressive, rears are linear) coupe drop .6"/.3" sedan drop 1.4"/.7"
Spring rates in lbs 324/260 (final rates only, softer intial front progressive rate unknown)

Tein S-tech G35(fronts are progressive, rears are linear) coupe drop 1.2"/.9" sedan drop 2"/1.3"
Spring rates in LBS 358/274 (final rates only, softer intial front progressive rate unknown)
