What's the drop with 350z H-Tech springs on a G35?

My next upgrade will be to lower, but I'm only looking for less than an inch drop. Does anybody know what kind of drop I would get in my G coupe with 350Z H-tech springs? Does anybody have pictures with G35 H-techs? Help a G-Driver out.

G's Up....

For a coupe, an additional 0.5 inches to the advertised rate.

Check out this post that I made a few weeks ago. You can also click on these links to see the before and after drop photos.

FYI, there are about 10 before and after photos, you just have to click on each post by "Neffster" since I loaded the pictures, 1 to a post.

What about a sedan?

If you would add .5" for putting a 350z suspension in a coupe than what would it be for a sedan? 1"?

No, it's actually about 1.3f and 1.2r (based on a 1.0 inch drop with stock 350z springs + the additional .3f and .2 for the Htechs), however the springs DO settle quite a bit so your drop will be a little more than this.

My latest measurements, center of wheel to fender with a full tank of gas, is 14.0 in the front and 13.75 in the rear. I do not have stock measurements but measuring this way negates any differences in tire and wheel size. If you are at stock height, please post your stock measurements. Thanks

AV8R,

Maybe you can answer another question for me...I have a set of Vogtland springs for the 350z, the drop is 30mm(about 1 3/16"). I was going to put these in my sedan, I but I realized after I bought these the that:

350z supension in a sedan = 1"

So, if I install springs that drop a 350z 1 3/16" will my drop be 2 3/16" approx.??

Is so, what should I expect for proper alinement? I assume rear camber arms, right?

Thanks for helping a new guy.

Av8r, I measured mine at 15.4 front and 15.4 rear or 15 3/8. That is on my 2004.5 sedan 6mt(sport) with full tank of gas, and compeletly empty trunk(no spare, jack, or carpet of any kind)
