1 day 5 hours, do it. That's a short drive

Road trip woot.

 

Hmm maybe if i can find places to stop over hahaha, I'm gonna try and get a job In cali after i graduate so maybe this September or something i can go to a meet in CaLI!

 

Sweet!

 

Tein all the way

 

anyone in SoCal is more than welcome to a ride if you pm and meet me.

 

man you guys are crazy. i'm not modding my G, but if i were, i'd go KW-v3 for sure. i have tein's on my other car and they're OK.

 

FYI guys, saw these on Andy's site today:

Tanabe coilovers

May be a good alternative to those wanting to spend less while still having a good product. ETA is about 3 weeks.

 

If the Tanabe's were adjustable dampers, I'd be all over them. I'm gonna wait on either the TEIN's or the JIC FLT-FAS's when they become available for the V36 chassis.

 

I guess they're sorta like Bilsteins/Tokiko Blues, etc. Some peeps will like them if they're not into adjustments.

 

what is not adjustable on these that is adjustable on others? can you still adjust the height of the car with these? and how exactly do you adjust the height on coilovers, i was always curious lol....

 

In that link I provided above, take a look at the pic. You'll see that the shock body is threaded, and at the base of the spring are two collars ( gold color). Those two collars control the ride height

The fact that the shocks are "non-adjustable" means the rebound and compression of the shock are pre-set and not adjustable by **** like teins, jics etc

 

i was kind of looking for some more info than that. what i meant was, can i adjust the height myself in my own driveway? do i have to stick my hand in there and adjust it? does a shop need to do it? or is it a 1-2-3 job i can do? the reason i ask is, my g37 coupe 19s are going on in the spring, and if the front gap bothers me (i don't think it will, even on the stock sport 18s it doesnt bother me, i feel like it looks much worse in pics, maybe the fact that im over 6 feet helps because i have a high view?), i might look into coilovers because i don't want just springs and have my shocks wear faster. but yea i feel like there are too many complaints about ride height around here on the g35 Sport, its really not that bad at all. I think the bigger problem is the 50 series tires up front. and i'm putting 245/40s up front and 275/35s on the rear, so that should solve that. and 245/40/19 is pretty much a plus zero size for 225/50/18, so the gap should be identical. i'm excited

 

mine you can adjust spring load, height, and shock stiffness.

 

kYou can adjust them yourself. You usually have to remove the tires to do so, and most come with some type of wrench to adjust the collars. Just remember that adjustment from one height to another may require a realingment

 

ah i see, sounds like way too much work for me. too many alignments, not worth the warranty risk with infiniti. plus i happened to love my G's suspension. its more than good enough for the occasional spirited driving around town, plus its not too low to the point where you have to watch out for scraping your underbody. lets just hope that gap doesn't ruin the look of my 19s.
