Tein Suspension Question

Does anyone know if the TEin Flex suspension made for the 2004 G35 coupe will fit on the 2004 Nissan Skyline?

The cars are pretyy mcuh the same expect for a few minor differences.

I don't see why the G35C suspension wouldn't fit on the JDM Nissan 350GT considering they're basically the same car but with different badging and opposite steering wheels.

The Flex spring rates for the JDM 350GT are softer than the Flex spring rates for the USDM G35C.

350GT: 560 lbs/inch, front & rear
G35C: 671 lbs/inch, front & rear

Re: Tein Suspension Question

Thanks for the reply

So with the JDM Nissan softer spring rating and the tein flex basically made for the harder spring rating for te G3, will the ride be bad?

Considering the Flex has a stiffer spring rate over stock, it will be slightly stiffer. With the Flex, you can adjust for spring pre-load, height adjustment, and damping so ride comfort can be customized. Keep in mind, the Flex is more perfomance oriented than the CS so if you're looking for better suspension over stock but don't want to sacrifice ride comfort, then go with the CS. For me, I've had aftermarket suspension on my previous car and am willing to sacrifice some comfort for performance. Do more research and find what works for you.
