I can determine which ones I want. I wish I could see a side by side comparo with the same wheels installed, preferrably 20x9.5 and 20x8.5. I want the ones that lower the least, but I prefer the gaps to even or a smidge lower in the front.

 

I have not seen any that leave the front gap smaller than the rear. And trust me - I have been looking. THe H&R's seem to be the most even, but it is dropped quite a bit. The eibach is almost like the H&R, but the front is just a hair higher.

 

Yeah and from other models and cars I have seen with tanabe and tein springs, they are most often lower in teh rear than the front. I wish there would be a set of quality coilovers available here soon, very soon.
I was hoping I could keep it simple with a set of nice springs that provided a nice stance, but there isn't too much out there yet. If the H&Rs were 1/8 inch higher they would be by far the best option for me and I am sure many others. HINT HINT SPRING COMPANIES. others chime in on this.

 

if you want that look where the front sits lower then the back of the car, and you wanna do it strictly for looks only and not a performance benifit just drop the front.

 

everyone keeps sayin that h&r's are lower then the eibachs...But if you look on stillens site at the eibachs and read the notes it says the front of the car is 1.4 and the rear is 1.3. If you look on everything g35.com for the h&r's it says the front is 1.3 and the rear is 1.2.

Am i missing something?

 

I just install Eibach's. The back is a bit lower than I'd like. The rear camber kit however is supposed to raise the back a little bit from what I've read. I'm waiting to get my alignment and will probably order the kit.

The ride is amazing. No loss of the smooth ride but much firmer around corner and on stops/starts. I love it.

PS: TerryCS had a great write up on the evolution of Eibach's spring for the 07. Look it up. It's a long read but worth a look.

 

I do want to get handling benefits as well. I have seen that the prvious model years teins lower the front 1.3inches and the rear .7 inches. I don't know what they measure stock though. I think that would be good drop if it levels it out perfectly because the 07s are a little heaviers so that means it would probably sit .8 lower in the rear and 1.4 in the front. I am just scared that it too much of a rake, unless of course stock they sit .6-.5 inches lower in the rear.

 

I think you're stressing on this too much. Even if someone were to post the pictures you're looking for, you would have to account for other stuff like whether or not the car is aligned (wheel gap is affected when camber is adjusted as mentioned by EWG35 and terrycs) and also how much gas is in the car. From my experience with all of my cars, which have all been lowered, the difference between a full tank and a near empty tank of gas can be as much as 1/2" lower or higher in the back.

IMO, both the Eibach and H&R drops look great. Eibach looks a little more conservative and will provide greater front suspension travel while the H&R has a more aggressive stance.

 

I'm going by real world results and not manufacturers data. The H&R's drop is lower than advertised.

 

oh ok..i thought what they put was pretty accurate. MAKES SENSE!!!

 

Here is mine after install, BUT before camber kit. My right rear was 1/2" lower in the factory state. I took to Infiniti and they said they'd put a new spring on it but nothing was wrong with it. I used Dial Calipers to measure before and after. The rear dropped .12" more than it was supposed to 1.42". The front dropped 1.27", .13 less than it was supposed to. They said give it a couple of weeks and the front should settle more than the back. ?? For some reason the RR corner is 1/2" lower before and after Eibach install.

A mild window tint is next.

 

That would bug the hell out of me about the right rear. That would make me want to get a set of coilovers since I know the dealership would not fix. They would say it is within factory specs.

 

Interesting about the RR being 1/2 inch lower that amount is noticeable I would have had the dealership fixed that before putting the eibachs on that can't fly.

 

I agree with Perry. That is a lot.

 

The dealership told me after inspection that the problem was the stock spring and that they would replace the stock spring. I figured if that was all it was it would do no good since I was already replacing those springs. My guess is something like the cup the spring is seated into is not to spec. It's not the spring, must something else. I plan to take it back. I wanted them to see it in the prelowered state so they could document that the problem is not the new springs.
