350Z springs + Koni shocks installed on sedan
I know Gsedan35 is not big fan of the Koni's, but I figured I'd try them out anyway.
I got the '04 Z springs for $150, and I got the four Koni adjustible sport shocks (meant for a 350Z) for $680. I have the shocks adjusted to medium on front and back right now, at least until I feel room for improvement. There is hardly any bounce, and this is so much better than the stock sport setup. I'm really liking how there's no squat anymore on a hard launch. I'd post a pic of it lowered, but there's enough of those showing sedans on Z springs.
The only thing that bothered me is that the car couldn't be re-aligned to factory spec on the front. I took it to a Nissan dealership, and the service guy said it was real close, but couldn't quite make it. But whatever, I'll live with it.

Re: 350Z springs + Koni shocks installed on sedan
Sweet. How about posting up a pic or two anyways? =D
Seems like the overall package is a pretty good deal. Did you install yourself or did you have a shop do it? Personally I'm waiting on the Tokico D-Spec package that is coming out anytime now before I make my decision. But what I would really want ideally is the JIC FLT-A1 coilovers which they do not make for our application. The FLT-A2's are awesome for the track but I couldn't handle it for a daily driver.
