Ok. Some of you know that i have been trying to get some other springs to work on our cars but i need you help now. I need somebody to get some measurements of the springs itself. I need the measurement of the front and rear springs, from end to end. I do not need any measurement when the springs are installed. I just need the springs measurements. Can some one please help me get this measurement. thanks in advance.
P/s: mods can you just leave this thread here if is for the 2007 specificly. thanks

 

They are booth 13". One end is set flat (not end ground, but you get the idea) and the other is open.

Coil Diameter (OD)
5" rear
4.5 front

Coil Spacing:
3.25 rear
2.5 front

Wire dia:
1/2", both springs

Knock yourself out!

 

always great when u get the answet perfectly put in the first post!

 

Uh ... actually, I was thinking about this ... I should not have assumed the larger coil OD spring goes on back!

 

hmm... that is weird. that means that the springs have a low spring rates because the 350z springs i have the fronts sets are 13 inchs. thanks terrycs for the info. I am really greatfull for that info. thanks so much. This is for the H&R springs right. thanks

 

ok.. here is the measurements off the 350z springs. the fronts are 13" end to end and the rear is 11.5 inches.

 

No problem on the measurements ... they were just sitting on the garage floor anyway.

Actually, spring rate technically has nothing to do with spring geometry (shape). It is the force needed divided by the amount of spring deflection. Therefore the units are lb/in.

 

terry- what are you doing with H&Rs sitting on the garage floor??? You have those AND the Eibachs AND your getting the prototype alignment kit AND youve got some top secret custom wheels coming? GEEBUS!!

 

YIKES ... I thought the OP was talking about the stock springs! Sorry all!

 

OH!!!.. no wonder!.. TERRYCS!!!!!.. i really though that my 350z springs would work then. I didnt know that you gave me the STOCK springs measurement than.!.. I needed the H&R springs.. thanks anyway.. Will anyone with H&R springs just sitting around do some measurement please!>..

 

I seen some many people with H&R but nobody has a set that they can just measure??? This is for research people.. please help me.. thanks in advance

 

WOW.. nobody has replied since i replied days ago... there really isn't anybody that is willing to just measure a couple of springs???

 

i dont think many people read the tech area yet

 

I thought I had sent you a PM. In any event, the rear is right at 13" and the front are roughly 12.75 (closer to the 13" - about 1-2 cm). Hope this helps.

 

thanks >. i never received your pm.. but thanks for you help. So. in other words the car doesnt drop at all. wow.. ok.. thanks again guys.
