Not trying to beat a dead horse but the lowering bug bit me today so I had to start looking around. I called Tein and according to them anyone that deals for them should be able to special order the cedric/gloria springs. Here is the info I was quoted, if Jason, Clutch or anyone else could confirm this and that they can get these ordered, I would be really interested in getting a set and I'm sure others would too. Let me know.........

Tein S-TechNissan Cedric (Y34)Part # SKN86-S1B00

Drop F= 25mm (1inch)

Drop R= 22mm (bit less then an inch)

MSRP = $230.00

Group Buy.?.? may save you biters some money seriously, I'd love to see some other M's get looooow.

Edit:

I’d like to also vote this thread as the “Thread of the Year” most looked at/viewed, most useful/benificial, etc...

ClutchKick, look out for a free can of BG44K and your very own embroided infiniti velour sweat suit with matching kangol, oh and the infiniti medallion(fresh off of a QX56), but only if you win the votes from the infiniti delegates. Popular votes do not count, SORRY!

Hey Guys...

I no longer work where I used to, so havent been as active on the forums...

I can set up a group buy for the springs...

Although, the price I used to sell them for at my old company was pretty low considering the cost to ship the heavy large box these springs ship in.

If you all would like me to set up a group buy lets do it.

You can email me at [email protected]

The discount structure on these springs is not the same as regular TEIN springs since they are special order. All special order parts have discounts percentages like the coilovers.

Post by **saeedakobiakov** » Wed Apr 09, 2008 5:37 pm

how much you would charge if we get ten orders?caug.

FGY33, Y 34 and F50 have pretty much the same suspension design.

how is the ride with the springs. Stiff and bouncy or or what. It is not a lot of drop considering the height of the car so I would think it would not be too bad. Any clearance issues scrubbing on driveways or anything. I have a lowered car now and am tired of dealing with driving it, but I love the look of the M with the lowering springs but don't want the harsh ride or worrying about ripping the bottom off.

The koni reds would be nice and with the different perch settings, it would allow you to lower and raise the car with 2 or 3 different settings, but I doubt if koni or the toks are available for the car. what a shame

The rear springs and shoxs are seperate from each other, so I wonder how that would work if it were available

Post by **Manok** » Fri Apr 25, 2008 7:45 am

I had koni SAs on my camaro SS and they were a nice shock. Handled great with my H&R springs. On my Cobra I had bilsteins which were nice. Ill call up bilstein and see if they have any shocks that fit the 03-04 M45 and have them revalved for the spring rates of the teins.
