Lightbulb So does anyone make coilovers yet? If so, who?

I'm starting to get my plans together on what I want to do to my G. I'm going to take the 'G35S' Badge off, leaving just the Mt. Fuji emblem. Going to get 19" Volk Progressive TE's.



Staggered (8.5" F, 9.5" R) widths (Shooting for around 35+ offset, correct? )
Here's a quick chop
Stock:

After:

And install the G37 Front and rear brakes under them.




I'd Also like to get coilovers to tighten up the suspension. It's currently lowered on H&R springs, But I feel the Shocks are a little too soft. I just don't know who actually sells coilovers for the 07's yet. Any info would be appreciated!

These HKS coilovers are available in Japan. You can have them imported:

There's also another local company w/ coilovers. Spring rates seem rather high for a street car at 14 kg/mm F and 10 kg/mm R. Info in this thread:

It's about $2000.

Another thing - the HKS JDM website seems to indicate the coilover kit is not compatible with cars w/ 4WS.

I don't think these will work on an 07+ G35 sedan despite what their descriptions state. I think they list the years are 03-07 because the Coupes were basically on the same platform from 03-07. The 07+ sedans suspension is somewhat different than the 06 and earlier sedans and coilovers made for 03-06 sedans are not compatible with 07+ sedans.

I've also checked directly w/ Tein as well as a couple of forum sponsors and they confirm that Tein does not have any coilovers available for the 07+ sedans yet.

Looks like H&R also has coilovers for the 07+ G35:

They're also listed on tirerack.
