Are coupe/350z springs physically shorter than the sedan springs?
Are they physically shorter than sedan springs, or do they just get more compressed when installed on the sedan?
I'm almost positive they're shorter, and know that the sedan doesn't weigh much more than the 350z (and is lighter coupe), so don't give me a newbie response. haha. I'm just looking for confirmation before purchasing. Cheers!

Do you mean between the coupe and 350? I am asking about the difference between the coupe and sedan, or 350 and sedan. Basically, is the 350 spring shorter than a sedan one, and is the coupe spring shorter than a sedan one? I should have just said the coupe vs sedan to make things less complicated lol.

they should be about the same uncompressed, however, if they are used, the uncompressed height may be different. Don't rely on the uncompressed height to determine which is which..
i have g35x sedan springs and g35 coupe springs side by side. They are both equal length uncompressed for the rear.
I cant speak for the front because my spring is still compressed to the strut.

Yes, they are physically shorter. The unrevised Z springs share the same spring rate as the sport package equipped sedans. The shorter Z springs gives sport sedans a 1-1.5" drop in front and 1" drop in rear when compressed.
The unrevised G35 coupe rear springs are slightly longer than the Z unrevised rears, about 1/2". For a more even drop around, I'd recommend going with the G35 coupe rear springs. I've had this setup for a while and love it. Not a crazy drop, but it looks nice.
