From my experience...despite the fact that I have a Sedan...the Espelir springs from a 350Z should be the lowest out there.

My friend had these on his 350Z & got tired of all the scraping all over...so gave'em to me to put on my Sedan. I LOVE the slammed look...not to mention the improved cornering (they are VERY stiff).

Go onto Google & search for Mackin Industries (they're the distributors of Espelir products in the U.S.)...their website will show rates, etc.

Not trying to be smart here, but maybe you should look into what springs would give you the best ride/handling/looks/geometry, rather than just the lowest stance. Are you planning on keeping the stock control arms/suspension components? If you are, then don't look for the lowest springs, otherwise you will be eating through tires, and throwing off the handling characteristics/putting increased wear on suspension components, etc. The lower the springs, the less the travel, the less streetable, etc. Just a thought.

Tanabe DF is 1.7 front. InTrax is 1.8 all around. Skunk2 is supposed to be around 2"

The Sprint spring for the G35c is the same advertised drop as the InTrax, which is 1.8". However, if you go with Sprint's 350Z version on your G, it's advertised as 1.75, but we all know it would be a little lower on the G. Probably over 2"
