Lowering springs for G35X?

Does anyone know if there is a specific lowering spring kit for the G35x, or do the kits offered from H&R or Eibach apply to all G35 models?

I know that Audi's can be lowerd and they are AWD therefore there must be a way to lower the G35X, right???

Any of the springs will work but will lower you 1/2" more than the rwd sedan.

I can confirm this! I've lowered my 2004 G35X with RWD G35 Sedan H & R sport springs. Drop is about 1.5 inches, maybe a little lower, with an amazingly even drop!

I would recommend H & R springs to all G35 Sedan owners, but many owners already know this.

nope...it has not voided mines and i go to the dealer for all my maintanance. The only way they can void it if it's the ride height messes up ur undercarrige or if u hit ur tranny at a lowered height.

It looked sicked for that drop on the H&R. I guess this is probably a better ride with the h-techs.

The thread here details it all out pretty well.

Basically, you can run any G/Z springs on your sedanX and it'll give 1/2 inch more drop than what is expected on a regular Sedan.

It's the front shocks - not springs - which are shaped different for the X as they have the extra bit at the bottom to wrap around the front drive shafts (where the rwd models shocks just go straight down)
