Any opinions or links to pictures?
I ran one as a spare a while back when I has a rim repaired. I think they look good on a sedan.

the rears have two spindells connectiong to the struts I'm not sure if there are. Lower control arms or compression rods back there but it feels like every bushing possible on this car goes at 90k miles it sucks bigtime

Sorry, this has probably been asked 1000 times but.... Is there a way to know if 350Z springs are revised based on the year? Or are the red dots the only way to tell? I ask bc I found some springs for sale off of an 05 Z but the seller has no clue what I'm talking about when I say "revised"

if they're 05 then they are revised all the details on distinguishing between the two are in the suspension section

if its a 05 then i say they are revised. I think mid 04 is when they made the switch. so like 2004.5 models had revised. Dots are the only way to tell, because its spring rate not ride height that is different.

This is correct.

Mine are revised and they came off a later build 2004.

That does look pretty good!

Wannabe was trying to convince me that they only looked good on the 03-04 sedans

^ I figured either would fit, but wasnt sure about matching the Z spring rates, and shock/strut length or ride height etc.
