FS: Brand new set of 350Z Tein H-Techs Springs

I have a new set of Z H-Techs springs for sale. They have never been installed and are in the original box. For local pick-up and $140.00. If interested, shoot me a PM.

Andy, why did you decide against the install and what are you going to drop the car with now?

I picked up another set of springs some 3 weeks ago. I have finally decided to go with a more conservative approach and will be installing a set of '06 Z springs.

Thanks, Giri . . . I decided to go with the revised Z springs due to the fact that the spring rate matches my OEM sport tuned suspension springs perfectly. The ride quality should be the same. Now . . . Hopefully, I'll get my new wheels and tires before the Hearst Castle run.

i'm lookin forward to checking it out. (esp those wheels... i saw the winnings when i went to infineon a few weeks ago and was uber jealous)

i went with the Z springs for the same reason you did. the ride quality is pretty close to stock, some differences. if you've never had a lowered ride, just watch out for speed bumps (i go over 6 every day on my way to work... dang parking lots) and steep curb cutouts turn into/out of strip malls off the street. i have to take them slowly or my splashguards or diffusers will scratch. i dunno how people go any lower. my sedan is roughly low as a stock Z now and any lower and it would be too much of a hassle for me

LOL . . . I deal with 4 speed bumps on my way home everyday. Some people rarely encounter them, but it's a daily occurrence for me . . . So, I decided to go with a conservative drop.

good luck with the sale Andy.. But the 350z H-tech would have great with your new wheel combo.

Exactly. I have a pretty damn steep driveway leading to my apartment garage that is below street level. I have the 350Z Dspecs with '03 Z springs. And I've scraped my muffler a few times going up the thing. If I ever go coilovers it will definitely need to be able to retain stock Z height or I just need to move.
