Never heard of M2 springs before. The spring rates (Spring Rate Front/Back: 280lbs / 225lbs) are pretty soft compared to what I'm assuming you're running (unrevised z springs? FR314 R342. Revised z springs are at FR314 R427).



Are you wanting to be slammed (3" drop)? Might as well go with coils - you'll be able to adjust height/dampening which is a BIG plus - because you'll have to replace your stock/350z shocks anyways to handle that low of a drop.

You should also get front and rear camber kits.

How is it dumb? Ive actually seen it happen. A buddy of mine ordered a set of springs on ebay. he opened it and the box had a 5 lbs. weight in it. So from seeing it, is the reason why i said it and dont trust ebay.

^So your buddy got screwed, now we are all to assume that everyone who sales anything on ebay is a crook and just going to ship you a 5lb weight?

I bought springs off ebay too... only thing that was in the box was 10lbs........... worth of springs.

"Yes, I'd like to ship the 25 lb weight to here..."

"Ok, how much does it weigh?"

"10 lbs"



What would be really funny is if you went to ship an exercise weight, and the fedex place threw it on the scale, and it actually weighed less than it claimed

If you're looking for additional drop in the rear, just do the top spring mount mod and you'll get the drop you're looking for.
