I have a coupe and I decided to get the gf210 Tanabe springs for the 350z. It lowered the car a little more and I did a spring mount mod in the rear and the cars sitting perfect. Just do your research and ask people what they have done with their suspension so you have an idea.

if u use the search forum link on this site you can literally read hundreds of posts and peoples opinions rather than a few here. You can answer all ur questions by searching rather than come up with new questions every other post.

i think i'm gonna go with G/Z because it seems the cheapest. that thread has a lot of nice pictures. also if i go any lower than the G/Z im afraid of my tires rubbing. they shouldn't on the Z/G right?

get an ebach prokit or the g/z combo and call it a day, you shouldnt rub, and if you do just roll your fenders.

It's NOT pricey.. Just cut ur springs an call it a day then..Sounds to me like ur not ready to mod ur car. Do it right or suffer in the long run. Wut do u expect? The car USED to cost close to 40k new. Parts aren't cheap.

if u go with springs, you might as well get new shocks and struts.

Here I found a good combo for you and its a good price.

do it right the first time and get coils.

if you get springs, you're gonna end up having to get aftermarket shocks. and once u see how low those springs get you, u get kinda picky and want to lower it another inch... in doing so you shoulda just picked up a cheap pairs of teins.

want to save money? by getting springs.. sure as long as you are determined not to change the height of your car or get rims. the installation is gonna cost you money, then when you need new shocks, that's gonna cost you installation. and if u decide to go lower, new set of coils, installation is gonna get you again.

might as well pick up coilovers which has an adjustable spring and depending on model/brand you can adjust the dampers.

if you pick up coils, any 350z or g35 coupe or sedan, don't matter. they'll work. if money is an issue look for a cheap deal on teins basics or megans. save up a few more dough and get some used bc's or stance.

figure out what you wanna do long term, and do it right the first time.
