Quote: Yes, i know the tien and eibach work i figure it out when hikos g was set up wif it. BUT i also know that the 03-06 G35 sedan can use the 350z revised front and g35c rear springs. The drop is very nice and i do not have to worry about weird spring rates and weird un balance spring and expensive springs. All i need to do is get the g35c springs and 350z spring. You might need to do some reasearch to see what i am talking about. The g35 sedan 03-06 guys know what i am talking about.

Okay guys. It is official. I have installed the g35c spring and they fit. Except for one part. Unfortunately the front springs are extremely higher than the stock 07's g35 springs. SO now. I am very certain that we can install the 350z h-tech springs and have the same drop that hik0's have. When i installed the g35c springs in the rear i had a 1 1/2 finger gap. And its the same rate that we would be if we installed the h&R springs. So lets get modding.

^ On the first gen G35s the Coupe springs don't give an even drop front to rear but the front aren't higher than stock. WOW thanks for experimenting. I recommend trying 350z factory springs they are linear a lot cheaper and only give a 1 inch drop for those that felt railgunner and hikos g3 were too low in other treads.

Yes it will fit with the 350z front springs and the g35 or the 350z revised rear spring. It is official. I am going to order some spring from a member here today and i will try to get it on up with pictures of it with stock 18's and my fx 20's. Hopefully everything goes well and i will end up making a sticky. By the way, when i was under the car trying to get the suspension out. Man all i can say is they have innovated soo much that it takes only 15 mins to take the front springs on. Amazing.

CANNOT wait to see this!! My H&R Springs are being installed today, I am a little nervous though, I think it might more drop than I want. I was looking into the 350Z or Coupe springs as an alternative.... I dont have the now how to do all the work myself though, so it seemed a little too risky. Once you do it, I may be looking to trade out my H&Rs for some stock 350Z springs?!?! We shall see!

^ what part of Virginia are you in when I lived there I took my old car to treadquarters to get my springs installed. They do a good job and they didn't charge an arm and a leg just 1 hours labor.

No, but they are only 18's. Sorry to disappoint you!

I had the 17" stock wheels before and did not want to get a tire with such a low aspect ratio to avoid breaking teeth at every pot hole.

no.... i wasnt saying it sarcastically, they honestly did look like 16's, and with as much rubber as u have it makes it looks like it even more. i dont no its just something... maybe the huge lip on them gives it that appearance... good luck w the vehicle

I hear ya. They are 245/45 18 front and back with about 3.25 inchs of side wall same as the stock rears on the Sport. Maybe the shadows make them look taller. They were 225/55 17's which is almost 4.5 inches of side wall. If it were lowered I think it would look better, but I'm waiting until there is a camber kit so I don't wear off all of my inside tread. I'm taking notes from what others have learned.

Someone said the Eibach or H&R kit lowers the car to a clearance height of a 2x4 (lumber). That's 3.5 inches of clearance. Sounds a bit scary. In one the pics I posted, it shows me parked about 3 inches from a curb. If I had rolled six inches closer to the curb the whole front airdam would be shreaded. I can't image in damage lowering it another inch. But I want to.
