suspension help please coiloverkit installed

I purchased H&R coilover kit for my 2007 g35 sedan sport. The H&R website says that the coilover kit is good for 2003 - 2007 do you know if they redesigned the suspension system when they redesigned the sedan? I have the front installed and lowered to max amount and it looks almost stock still according to the kit it is supposed to go 2+ inch drop. In the rear i have it raised to max high and it seems to be to low. I had the car inspected by Super auto bac in stanton ca, which is a major after market shop and they said everything was installed correctly. I have attached a photo of my front and close up of front and one single of my rear. If anyone has any answers questions or advise i would really apprecaite it thanks!

I THINK you got the wrong springs, i have seen many on this site that have gotten H&R and they have much better looking drops. Im pretty sure that they intriduced new springs for the 07+ sedans and the 2003-2007 that you saw was probably for the coupe.... just my $0.02

I've heard they haven't released a new set for the new sedan, but those who have put the old springs on the new sedan have seen a significant drop ESPECIALLY in the front... if your's still looks stock, something isn't right!

seeing as you installed the coilovers, and not just the springs that the majority of people have, your results are sure to be different than everyone elses. that being said, their website lists the front drop as 1.2 - 2.2, and the rear drop as 1.0 - 2.1. Compared to the sport spring setup of -1.3 front and -1.2 rear, i'd say your front isn't even at the 1.0 mark, let alone the 2.1 drop you should be seeing if you have it lowered the max amount like you say. keep us updated!

thanks for the great feed back i would have to say i agree with everyone ontop of that i researched this issue with the infiniti dealer in tustin, ca and they said the whole car was pretty much redesigned in 07 from brakes, looks, suspension, etc which im sure you all know just by looking at the new g haha. Also h&r has the same kit listed for my car which is a new g35 and listed for the old model g and listed for the g35 coupe. Would anyone think this kit should fit ALL 3 cars? odd im calling h&r today and will let everyone know my feedback.
