Help Me Out Lowered G's With Teins..
 
Ok guys heres the deal....


I have had my H-techs (for the G) for about 4 mths now.. I love the drop in the front now that the springs have settled.. However, being the nit picky freak that I am, I have to say that the rear of the car is still a bit high! I was hoping to get some insight on the opinions of changing the rear springs to the Z's Htech. REARS ONLY!!! So in essence Ill be running g htechs up front and zhtechs in the rear.. Does anyone have any opinions on this set up.. For those of you who have the zhtechs in the back espically..

Theoritically this should drop the car .6 all around right??

All help appreciated...

I was concerned about too much forward rake with the G H-techs and so I bought the ones for the Z. Getting them installed this weekend and will let you know how it turns out.

I just got the h tech for the z for my g. much stiffer(better) rear spring rate. I too will be installing next week. I'll post pics also.

g_man35- I got a pair of almost new s-tech rear springs for the G if you want them. I put about 100miles max. the springs are a hair stiffer than your h-techs so comfort will not be affected that much...if at all.

Its like a 1" drop from stock. I have them since I only use the front s-techs
and rear eibachs to match my preferred spring rates. ;)

EDIT: The rear S-TECH is sold! :D

Heres how it will look. H techs for a Z

g_man35 Jan 14, 2005 06:20 PM

g352nv,


did your alignment go back into specs? probably not huh... Is the front too low, also hows the ride feel?

Should I replace the front springs with the z's as well you think??

Thanks

Here's the scoop...
The drop on the front was .75, rears were .25. I am quite pleased with the look as it gave me the slight forward rake I was looking for, and reduced wheel gap. As for the ride, it is definitely stiffer (speed bumps, dips, etc. are more pronounced). The car feels planted now and I noticed a nice improvement in weight transfer.

Alignment (help me out here fellas. I believe mine came out okay)
front camber -1.4 (both)
front toe .05 (L) .04 (R)
rear camber -1.6 (both)
rear toe .10 (L) .09 (R)

Oh yeah, got the springs from mynismo.com for $165.00 shipped to my door (add tax if you're in Cali). They matched another vendors price for me.

g_man35 Jan 19, 2005 06:19 PM

hey sponger...


whered you do your alignment at? Also about how many finger can you fit in the front and rear? Less than 2?

Depending on the size of your fingers...less than 2 fingers front (.75 drop)
and 2 fingers exactly for the rear (.25 drop). Got the alignment at Big O Tires since they had a computerized alignment machine, print outs, and aligned to my specs. The more I drive, the more I like these springs.

g_man35 Jan 20, 2005 05:41 PM

They were able to put the alignment back into specs????
