yea, but the thing with bliestein you wont be able to get the front shocks. you can send koni your stock front shocks and they will make then adjustable. some people have done that. i was the first i beleive. cost me a pretty penny but so worth it since theres nothing else out yet.

If you want the lowest drop, wait for the coilovers to come out. If you want springs. Then go with either the H&R 350z spring or 350z Eibach sportlines both should give you about a 2 or more inch drop.

Also if you have the rwd and not the awd. You can get coilovers now.

Well it seems like we have 2 companies working on them. That one company that guy post on page 48 and Attack racing (the one I am working with). That one company looks really close in finishing them. So sucks for me (sticking with Attack Racing), but good for all of us. More choices.

Hello guys I am new to this site but not new to the car game. This g35 is my brother's. I actually set it up because he needed a little motivation. The car has on tien s tech springs have had them on for roughly a year. Rides smooth yes the car has on 20inch rims and does not rub with help of my fender rolling job. The rims almost match the color of the car which is sarangheti sand. The car has roughly 35k miles on it so maybe around 15k miles on the springs. Struts are in good shape and are stock. I personally installed the springs my self. The car also has a lip spoiler on the trunk and tinted front window 35% and sides are 15%. Nuthing done to the motor just looks!!!!!

agreg001- Nice work man, very nice setup your brother has (thanks to you). What kind of rims are those? I'm a big fan of twin-spoke rims...and have never seen those before. Thanks for posting! Best looking sarangheti sand sedan I've seen on this forum!
