Sport Springs on an X... Anyone try this yet?

I'm considering strongly to pass the G to my gf and get a new toy for myself to replace our older Camry. I'm currently dropped on eibachs but that setup with barely 4" clearance just isn't feasible for her.

I would love to see how stock Sport Springs would look like on the X. Yes I tried searching, but it's not my lucky day with finding anything.

Does anyone know of someone, or done this themselves, to see what this approach would look like?

Thanks guys

I think the stock sport springs will fit on the X with no issue but make sure they are from a G35xS and not the regular S. As for the new toy I would suggest you look into the Subaru STi hatch.

I was thinking on the lines of the RWD Sport springs (the XS is still jacked as well).

And yes, the sti hatch is definitely a nice toy. I'm leaning more on the 370Z or an older s2000.

Maybe you can try out the RWD sport springs they might work too since the strut assembly is the same. As for the 370Z or the STi hatch either one you can't go wrong. Me personally I'm going to go for a GT-R when I'm done paying off my G which would be another year and half. If you need to buy the springs then you should get in contact with Tony at riverside Infiniti in Cali and he can get you what ever you need

Is there a significant difference in height between the X and S springs?

did a quick search of AWD springs, and found something that may help.

bat6wc was talking about doing the same thing putting sport springs on an X, so maybe send him a pm to see what he did.


this guy put g37s springs on a g37x?

Late reply I know...

sunny... : I agree Tony's great, got some things from him already
Nbeyond : yes, there's a difference, slight, but noticeable
Lucky : those coupe springs on the buddy's sedan look brutal

bat6wc : cool man, guess you thought of this too, you have any pics of that setup?

Bringing the old thread back, but can you tell if you are satisfied with the results, Bat?

How do the eibach springs ride with your stock shocks/struts?
