g37x sedan lowering springs

whats up everyone....im brand new to the site and this quuestion may have been answered before but...ive read that you can put regular sedan rwd eibach lowering springs on the g37x sedan model...my question is if the eibach rwd springs fit will the h&r springs fit the x model sedan too...bc i like the drop better from the h&r's....my other question is...is the front end heavier on the x model sedan and if it is how much bc if i were able to use the h&r springs on my awd it would lower the front even more than on a rwd model...than i would just stick with the eibach springs....i hope im makin sense to you guys...any info and pics would be greatly appriciated...thanx...and the g37x is a 2010.....

Yes the rwd eibach and hr springs fit on the x. Ironically, eibachs on the X tend to cause a gap in the front whereas the rear is flush. You can't go wrong with either although hr tends to drop it a bit lower, GL.

Here's the wheel gap I'm referring to:

Keep in mind that the drop is actually nice and level.
The appearance of gap is caused by the cut of the front fenders and not from a sagging rear end.

Thanks for the info guys I appriciate it....my other question is. If I were to go with the h&r springs...will the front sag more because of the differencial up front and axles...I'm guessing that the awd is heavier up front but I don't know how much...I like how the eibachs are a nice clean even drop but I wanted a little more aggressive look like from the h&r springs

I am using 1st Gen tein H-techs on my 08 G35x. Very even drop, exactly 2 finger gaps in both rear and front.

here is a quick iphone pic of my g35x vs a stock g37x

H&R are not advisable on the X, you'll have barely 3" clearance under the front AWD assembly, a bit too low. The eibachs are as low as you should go in the front, trust me on that. If the rear bugs you, just install a spring isolator when you put in the new springs and you will raise the rear enough to "even" out the wheel wells.

Aesonvirus is right, the car is level, but Nissan's notorious for cutting the wheel wells noticably higher in the front.

Leffizet...awesome X man!
