Does anyone have the 350z springs installed on their G?

The "Base" coupe weighs 3,339 lbs while the "Grand Touring" convertible weighs 3,600 lbs.

I assume they use the same springs? So they support a range of 3,339 - 3,600 lbs. Do they lower the vehicle any more than the stock G35 sport springs?


(The G35 6MT weighs in at 3,532 lbs btw)

 

Bad assumption. Do a little homework before you pick up those springs.

As an example, the 2001 Taurus had approximately 10 unique springs.

 

What's the best way to determine this?

Perhaps I'll browse H&R or Eibach's catalogs to see if they use different part numbers for different 350's... I doubt the dealer will look up part numbers for me w/o VINs.

 

from H&R's site:

350Z : 2003-up : Sport Spring : 1.3(F) 1.0(R) : 53050 <=(part #)

350Z Roadster Typ Z33 : 2004-up : Sport Spring (22) : 1.0(F) 1.0(R) : 53051 <=(part #)

G35 Coupe 3.5L, 6 cyl : 2003-up : Sport Spring (not AWD) : (22) : 1.1(F) 1.0(R) : 53035 <=(part #)

G35 Sedan 3.5L, 6 cyl, 6MT : 2003-up : Sport Spring (not AWD) : (22) : 1.3(F) 1.2(R) : 53036 <=(part #)

G37 Coupe 3.7L, V6 : 2008-up : Sport Spring (not AWD) : 1.2(F) 1.0(R) : 53030 <=(part #)

* Footnote
(22) Lowering varies by engine size and model

 

The "Grand Touring" coupe weighs 3,404 lbs.

It would seem that these springs would already be maybe .5" lower? Then add in the G35's extra 128lbs to lower it down a bit more. Maybe ending in an 'OEM' .75" drop?

Can the springs even be used across platforms?

I know the older G35 sedans could use G35 coupe/350z springs.
