Hey fab, I've been looking into coils lately.... What made you go with F&F? I can't find any solid reviews.

Lol, yeah it was a bit of a risk buying them since I couldn't find any review for a G either, or knew anyone who had them. The only opinions I had to base my decision on was from Honda owners and the guys over at Street Image (whom I bought it from)..... Initially I was about to buy some tein springs w/ tokico struts, but I bought my coils instead because they were cheaper than tein basics, had adjustable dampening, and I never found anything negative about them on any site.

Hey Jake would 350z S-Techs be lower than your g35 s-techs? I like want to go lower and dont want to wait for coils. But been looking at a lot of pictures of S-tech and they dont seem much lower than my H-techs.

trust me S-techs are def loower. i used to have H-techs but if you were to get S-techs get teh 350z version. the G35 i have are too squishy for me (low spring rate). i only grabbed them cus i got a killer deal on a used set.

i believe the drop on both S-Tech versions are about the same. ~1.2" drop all around. the G35 might be a tad higher in the rear but that can always be lowered via Springmount mod.

honestly just get coils. i wish i did last summer instead of just getting aftermarket shocks with the springs.

if victor gets Mr Wongs Megans, wanna get on a 3+ person Groupbuy? im leaning more on F&F over Megans though.

I would like to hear actual owner's complaints of these 2 coils. I can't really find anything Neg about either. I'm sure if a lot of people were having issues we would see new threads pop up on them.
And just a FYI MrWong said Megans are his top selling coils.

I believe the rule of thumb was anything more than 1" drop. I only have the rear but I'll def get some front arms with coils.
