Really, are there any other companies using the same coils for the V35 and V36s?

Well from the thread that was posted in their section.

The awd 1st gen we have had on our product line for a little over 6 months. We have had alot of generated intrest in both the 2nd gen and other awd platforms as most our competitors felt there wasn't sufficient demand for them. After contacting Infiniti to look over the details between both 1st and 2nd gen, the only difference found was the front lower fork that goes around the axle. We found that both generations use the same oem shock and tops in front and the rears. What we do recommend is for the 2nd gen customers is to ask for 12k front springs as the 2nd gen is a bit heavier up front. Some customers are requesting 12k front 8k or 10k rear. My personal opinion is you should be fine with a 12/8 setup. The part number is the same for both and is as simple as requesting a awd G35 as there is only one item. I'll check periodically here to see if there are any questions I can help answer for the members.

Thanks, Pete

Wanna give my thanks to James for the opportunity. He's a great guy to deal with. He was thorough and honest with the process. Here are some pics the Tech took. James took pics of the car after installation.

Looks great! How is the ride so far?
Is the rear at the highest it will go? Or can it go up a little higher?

Both the front and rear can be raised another 2" and lowered another 1/2"

Ok after about two weeks of driving on the coilovers here is my review of them.

-Adjustment of hight level is simple, quick and allows more height adjustment
than you can ask for.
-I really like the damper extension for the rear. It's now just right behind the
rear seat but can't be seen and very accessible.
- The quality is great. The finish is as good as other coilovers out there.
- Ride quality is great. Placed on mid for daily driving and it's very comfortable.

Overall Great set at a great price.

Are these available yet? If not do you have an ETA and price estimate?

Are you using the stock mount or custom on the bottom of the front struts?

And jmonsale are you still running these?
