Tanabe df210's vs. Eibach Sportline Springs
 

With these two springs, you will blow them out a lot sooner than they are rated to last. I blew mine out on 350z Tein s-techs. But if you aren't planning on running them for a long time, you should be good. How many miles are you currently at?

50k miles currently... on my z i had the tanabe nf210's for like 2 years and never had one issue with ride quality at all... my rsx-s i just sold had factory shocks with skunk2 sleeves maxed out and also had no issues, besides a shitty ride lol... but yeah i dont plan on keeping them along time..4-5 months max...

if your going to get coil overs than don't even waste you time with springs.
I had df210 and after f/r alignment my car was no longer tucking tire.

not even tucking tire lol

I really just want a temporary drop until then. The cars stance is pretty nice for just springs. What size wheels are those? And did you need a camber kit to align it?

With the drop you're wanting, you're going to NEED a camber kit. On Z s-techs, I straight shredded through a front pair of Hankook Evo V12s. My rear tires held out just fine because I thought I could get by with just a rear camber kit. Learn from my expensive lesson, get both front and rear kits!

I'll be getting the camber kit forsure, I def don't wanna be chewing tires, especially cause these tires are brand new. Thanks for the input

On GF210's. Get an alignment ASAP. 400 miles and my front tires have a lot of inner tire wear, pretty noticeable and im on harder tires.

for sure, im debating between the df210's and tein-s techs now... just hoping ill be able to align without a camber kit

Good idea. If your toe is off even by a little bit you'll see crazy wear on your tires. Having that sorted out just in itself will help preserve the life of your tires.

An alignment is key!

yes sir front spc camber kit and cheapo rear ichiba camber kit with toe bolts....

front camber wear was terrible even with the toe in spec...

Pay a little more and opt for the SPC rear kit instead of the ichiba. One of our members almost drove off a mountain road because his ichiba rear camber arms snapped mid corner. That's reason enough for me to never use anything other than their spacers.

OP, try to find a shop that offers a lifetime alignment. With coils, as you adjust your ride height, it will be very cost effective to have a lifetime alignment. While you're working on suspension, go ahead and inspect your lower control arm bushings. If torn, these will need to be replaced before you can get your car aligned 100%. This is a really common problem on our cars. If youre lucky enough to.not have torn LCA bushings, keep a close eye on them because they have a very very short lifespan on a lowered car. Keep us posted on your suspension progress! I'll snap.a pic of my Z S-techs tomorrow.

Edit: I noticed you're in Houston. What part? Goto Sal's auto sports for a lifetime alignment. Those guys are amazing and do a ton of work for the G/Z community. They are located right before Gessner on 290 west. Call Sal and tell him Sean with the Caribbean Blue coupe sent you. 7134628500

I appreciate the advice. and yeah that def makes me want spc front and rear camber kit haha. I live on the north side, basically the woodlands. I have heard of that shop so when i get closer to that point, im going to def consider them.

So z springs fit on the g? (without any modifications?) Im still learning this stuff but i keep seeing people say that... my buddy told me stock z springs on a g will give you about an inch drop?? is this true? I def wanna see a pic of your car on z s-techs
