So, a buddy of mine has some new in box tanabe gf series springs, should i get them or not? He said $150 for the set.

I kinda want to lower my car today/tomorrow....so if not these any shop have springs you would reccomend in stock? let me know quick, im an impulsive buyer!!

 

Hmmm.. GF I believe are only for the Sedan or Z.. get the model/part # and check here:

Damn, you rock, i would have been outside all night and wasted a whole bunch of time, knowing my friend he probably wouldnt have given my money back either.

 

Hmm so the sedan version doesnt work on a coupe?

this guy has the gf210 for a 350z on his g, would those work well?

And what does this mean?

Tanabe GF210 Series 350Z progressive springs 1”/1.2” drop on 350Z G35 drops will be higher
Spring rates in LBS 336/375 (only peak rates are published, softer initial progressive rates unknown)

 

I'm sure the sedan springs would fit, but i'm not sure how the ride quality would be. As far as Z springs, people throw them on G's all the time. Most prefer Z springs due to the spring rates usually being better for the Z than the G, and they tend to drop them lower than what's measured for the Z.

 

Alright, im not gonna buy these springs.

Anybody recommend a shop for springs less than 200 bucks? And what springs to get?

I dont want springs that would end up requiring a camber kit, im just trying to get rid of a wheel gap. Any ideas?


thanks tito

 

Springs designed for the Z will drop the G35 coupe approximately 0.5" more than advertised. Approximately 1.0" more for sedans.

 

Call up World One. those dude accidently ordered me Tein S-techs which they should have right now. tell them you're from the forums
206-938-7975
They're in kent

They'll probably quote you 170 for the springs or 300 for springs+install

 

BTW. I'm installing mine tonight. I may be able to help you out, depending on my failure or success tonight

 

Just talked to garret, he said he had those in stock, but he said they are if i want to go real low, so he recommended the Htechs, which would be 200 and i could have them by thursday.

 

lol nice, what ones did you buy?

 

those s-techs are for the G. they drop about 1.2 front and 1.0 rear.
H-techs are a good choice if you dont want camber issues. but it's a moderate drop search for redlude97, he has h-techs

I picked up used gcoupe eibach pros.. it should be 1.0 front and rear.

 

i run espelir active GT springs. I love them

 

who cares? you also love me, ernie, alvin, pat..
