i dont want coils...

as title says, right now im on full revised z suspension... and i dont want coils... primary because i have heard the ride can be stiff and not pleasant.. and i have seen people go from coils back to stock.. so my question is

which springs would go best with revised 350z suspension. i wanna sit kinda low since upgrading from unrevised to revised raised me higher..

Not sure where you heard that. Depends if the coils are adjustable or not. What you hear on the forums is not always the same as in the real world. I could go from riding on a cloud to feeling every crack on the road with my coils. Not to mention you can adjust the height.

Social,

I'm running the exact set up you're describing. S Techs and revised Z shocks/struts. My springs have settled just a touch since these pictures, but I'm real happy with how it all turned out. I think the Z parts match up well with the springs, the ride is tight but not harsh at all. The car handles very well and I love the look. I'm on coupe 19s with rolled fenders in the back and I have no rubbing or scraping issues either. If you don't want to commit to coils for now this is a really good combination IMO.

Nope. I'm thinking about 5 or 10 mm but I haven't decided on that yet.
