2005 g35 Coupe springs - F & R

FS, OEM 2005 G coupe springs, SET of 4. Will NOT part, ie will not sell fronts only or rears only.

I ran the springs (rears only) for about 25k mi on my G sedan. They had about 30k mi, so the rears have about 55k mi total and the fronts have 30k mi.

Fronts: 314 spring rate with 1 white dot.
Rears from a coupe with OEM 17s/18s: 342 spring rate with 3 red dots

Been stored in a box in my garage for the last few months as I've been too busy to make an ad and reply to pms.

$65 OBO + shipping + Paypal fees

Serious inquiries only.

According to the AWD sticky, this will work on an X, though I'm not 100% sure it applies to a 2007. Please ck with someone who knows more on the AWD. See red highlights below:
You will need both sets of my springs which are very hard to come by.

Lowering your AWD sedan

This is a very popular subject and has been discussed in great detail in the thread below
Calling all "X's" with a lowered suspension!

Some of the major information from this thread can be found below

Springs

Any springs that fit the G35, 350z, and G37 will physically fit the g35x. Some manufacturers go out of their way to say that their spring will not fit AWD, but they are wrong. Lowering springs adjust your ride height to a constant level. They are not adjustable

Disclaimer: lowering your vehicle inevitably causes added stresses to the suspension and will need replacement sooner, meaning, it will cost you more money than just the initial purchase.

The agreed upon rule of thumb for springs to lower the AWD sedan are:

RWD sedan advertised drop + ½” = AWD drop
G35 coupe advertised drop + 1” = AWD drop
350z advertised drop + 1 ½” = AWD drop

“What is the cheapest way for a mild drop?”
A common route is to take the rear springs from a g35 coupe and the front springs from a 350z for a “G/Z” combo suspension.


Anytime you are lowering your vehicle it is a good idea to have the wheels aligned. The stock suspension components will only allow for a certain amount of adjustment, and after that you will need to purchase additional adjustable components (toe bolts, rear camber arms, front upper control arms).

Coilovers

The advantages of coilovers are they can be adjusted for ride height and suspension travel/ dampening.

Coilover Manufacturers:
BC Racing
Megan Racing
KSports
D2 Racing (recent addition)
