Espelir Springs?
#2
#4
I have Eseplir springs on my G35C. I dont road race but the ride seems to have gotten only a little bit firmer. Website says .4" drop, but I think it is actually more than that. I have 19" Volk GT7s and I have a "3 finger" gap in the front and "2 finger" gap in the back. Not sure why it is like this, but I assume it is because Espelir is a road race R&D company and they must have determined this is an ideal setup? Overall I am quite happy with the springs, but I will probably go full coilover sometime in the future.

How's the ride versus stock? Did you have any alignment issues (camber problems)? How much of a drop did the Espelir springs give you - .5" to .75"? Please forward any additional pics.
I appreciate your help. Keith

hey i had Espelir GT on my 350z. The ride on the Z was stiff as hell, and the springs made it much nicer. it lowered perfectly. i had 1/2 finger gap with 19's and they actually made the car handle much better. not such a drastic drop where its like DAMNN, but done very subtly and aggresively.

I've got Espelir GT springs for a 350Z on my G-Sedan. The drop is drastic...I have absolutely no gap, and in fact the tops of tires are tucking a little.
The ride & handling is excellent, in my opinion...w/ the exception of the occasional bottoming out.
My tires have major negative camber...but I'm okay w/ that. If you're concerned about uneven tire wear, you MUST get a camber kit w/ the setup I'm running. However, if you are like me, and are more into cornering response over sooner tire replacement...then go for it, I think you'll love it.
Some people think my drop is too low & kinda "ricer Honda-ish"...but I like it.
Hope this helps! ^-^

i had the 350z Espelir GT. i aboslutely loved it. everyone would be like something looks different about this car, but could never pinpoint it. i loved that. the ride was awesome too, its a shame they arent as big as they should be. they make good quality springs. however on the G, i decided to go all out and get coilovers and sways should be coming in soon. I got an awesome deal from Tein direct for 670 for the basics. did the install myself, so i got a pretty awesome deal.
