I am close to getting the NF210 springs myself. I am looking for a conservative drop and without knowing a whole lot about springs these seem like a good option.
I live in SoCal, can somebody recommend where to the springs installed?

Yeah, I did notice that, but not right away. I really wish they were a 1" drop all around or even a 1" drop in front and 3/4" drop in the rear. It's between either these or Eibachs. I really prefer the raked look of the Eibach's better, but I really don't want that much of a drop in the front (1.4").

Hey man. Rick at Riverside Infiniti has these in-stock. I was gonna install mine myself, but they could probably do the install at Riverside for you too. Just give Rick a call in their parts department and let him know that Adrian from G35Driver sent you.

If you do end up going with these springs, please let us all know what you think... and, of course, post some before and after pics too.

Hey I looked into these before, but from my research it seems like the cars rear is lowered more, I personally don't like that look. I like the Lurched forward look, where the front seems to be lower than the rear.

^ that's what it should be!!!!
The springs will fit physical no problem.
The big unknown is the OE stance of the coupe compared to the sedan.
& the spring rates.

These springs are actually identical. Same part number and everything. They simply lower the sedan more than the coupe in the rear due to the differene in the OEM springs. I believe that most, if not all, of the aftermrket companies use the same springs for the V36 coupe and the V36 sedan.

Looks really good, Ggirl.

Now you just need some wheels spacers to push those wheels out a little.
