Agree! I doubt the OEM Z springs would sag...but I do know that since the rear fender sits lower than the front, it gives the illusion that its sagging. The drop is even all around, and thats the problem considering the front fender cut out is huge.

Seems all aftermarket springs drop the front more than the back.

True. It is more the look of sagging, not a defect in the springs.
You know what I mean.

I have 350z H-techs and Tokico D-Specs, and I am very happy with it. I can dial the D-specs right where I want...and if you have a sedan with reclining seats, it's really easy.

No, it's not "just you". I feel it too and I have the "Sport" set up. It's called Bump Steer and it's a problem with the steering geometry. Most race tuners re-vamp the steering and suspension to stop or reduce this.

Looks like I might just look for the suspension from the sport package, since from what I am reading some of the other setups cause sagging in the rear.
