Need advice on lowering springs for 04 G35X

[albert3029]

Whats up guys, like the title says I need some advice on what springs to get. I originally decided to go with the eibach pro kit. Then, after further research I decided to go with the revised Z/G-coupe rears. I'm suppose to buy a set of 07's G-coupe sport springs off someone. My question is, what if I go with the G-coupe sport springs all around, will this give me a decent drop without the camber issues and harsh ride? From what I've been told this will drop me 1" all around. Which I think would be good enough for me. Also will it give me an even stance? I know that the front fender is cut higher than the rear, so not sure if I should get a set of revised Z's for the front instead, so that it could stand evenly. I'm also going to get a set of 18" inch wheels soon, hopefully for the spring. Didn't think choosing springs would be this diffiicult and stressful!!

Thanks in advance for any replies.

I'd go with the eibach pro. It is a good set up.

So far, oem replacements or revalved Koni for ~$1000 a PAIR are the only shocks available to replace yours for when they go.

Coupe springs will lower the X about 1" all around. Springs from the 350z will lower about 1.5" all around.

Supposedly Tein was going to come out with some coilovers for the X, but it has yet to happen.

My friend here in town has H&R's on his X, it dropped him about 2". I think it looks real good.

I've heard good things on the H&R springs. I think it's alittle less than a 2" drop. I'm going to purchase 18" wheels in the spring, is a 235/40/18 tire good with the h&R drop?? Also what's the offset for the X's?

[tollboothwilley]

I think all sedans have a +45 offset on stock tires.

Read the FAQ. RED_DET has it detailed out.

I just bought a 2005 G35X and want to lower the car. I need to know if lowering the car is going to damage my ride. From what I can see, there are currently no springs for the G35X. I hear that the H&R's might be okay. Any suggestions? Keep in mind, I have the AWD.

[albert3029]

Go with the H&R's, I've read good reviews from people that have an x that went with the H&R's. I'm going to be buying these in a couple of weeks.

[tollboothwilley]

H&R's look great. Will lower the X almost 2".

Realize the X is about .5" higher than the sedan. The H&R springs for the sedan lower it about 1.5".

The coupe/z setup will lower the front about 1.5" and rear about 1".

H&Rs look even and look hawt.
