Sedan S-tech with oem 350z shocks

Anyone use this combo on their sedan? Good idea, bad idea? Are the oem 350z shocks short and stiff enough to handle the drop/rate of the sedan s-techs? I like the drop height of the s-techs, but Im trying to get a comfortable cruising ride, rather than a stiff sporty feel. Would the 350z shocks be too stiff (im sure they should'nt be, but someone confirm please) for my needs? Im sure i'll blow out the non-sport stock shocks if I use them with the s-techs. I thought this might be a cheaper alternative to D-specs. Anyone have any input or opinions? TIA

I do. And if ur running on stock wheels the ride should'nt be too harsh. If your gonna go with 19s the ride is going to be pretty stiff.

thanks for the input. is your ride comfortable with the 350z shocks? in your opinion, should i opt for the dspecs to keep the stiffness down or would i be ok with the z ones. i dont want to upset the wife when she drives it after i lower it.

If ur going to spend that much money for dpecs, just get the tein-basic coilovers. Again with 17s the ride isn't bad at all except it being tight and responsive. But with 19s you're wife might not like it.

That's just my personal opinion.

im scared the basics will be too stiff, and i wont be able to do anything about it. with the dspecs, i'd be able to tone it down. im not sure how stiff the 350z shocks are, a lot less than the basics would be im guessing. any input on that?


do you have a picture of your car? im curious to see how low it is with the coupe s-techs.
