To anyone who may know:

1. Do g35 tein h-techs provide a different drop for G sedans w/out sport suspension vs. sedans with sport suspension? If so, how much?

2. What is the difference in ride quality compared to oem non-sport springs? (stiffer, same, softer)

3. Will h-techs cause non-sport shocks to wear out prematurely?

4. Can one put 350z h-techs on a non-sport G sedan? If so, what kind of drop and difference in ride quality?

Thanks

 

Sport vs. non-sport does not matter unless you plan to keep the struts which I would not do anyway.

 

Not sure about #1 and #4 but if you are asking about the sedan H-techs:

2. Ride quality is about the same as the Sport springs, maybe a little softer. Check the spring rates on the springs/shocks sticky.
3. Your stock shocks will probably be fine for a long time with the sedan H-techs, it's a very mild drop (IIRC 1" in the front and 0.75" in the back). The spring rates are also very similar between stock and H-techs.

 

If you are looking for g35 h-techs.... I still have a new set in the box in my garage. Im getting coilovers insted so let me know 110 shipped!

To answer a couple of you questions. Yes it will prove about a .75 inch drop on the sedan. The sports suspension and the regular suspension have the same ride heights. With the h-tech you will have the same handeling as the sports tuned suspension with a more aggresive look.

Cool guys thanks. No thanks for the springs Nismo. I'm not in the market as of yet. Probably in a year or 2.

Does anybody know the actual oem spring rates for a non-sport G sedan?...so I can compare to the h-techs

 

Oem rates G35 Coupe/350Z: 314front/342rear
Oem rates G35 Sedan w/sport: 314front/342rear
Oem rates G35 Sedan non-sport: 280front/315rear

Tein H-tech for G35 Coupe (SKP30-BUB00)
F/R Progressive - spring rates listed rates are final rates
324front/260rear
(vs stock G35 Coupe) F+5% R-22%
Transfers: +27% spring rate balance to front
F drop –0.6”
R drop –0.3”

dude that was a fast response

is it me or is it weird that the rear h-techs are softer than non-sport rears?
hey nismo, do you have any experience with the h-tech ride quality?
should i just get front h-techs and leave my stock rear?

 

I dont have any experience. I baught the springs and never installed them so i couldnt tell you...i would just search around the forum.
