Actually, I was interested in the drop (and the ride/handling) the G35 coupe springs would give the Z.

The ride quality might be better (softer springs) but the handeling would be worse.... They also lower probably less for the 350Z. I beleive the 350Z is already half inch lower than the G35Coupe...

might not lowered at all. Cuz if I remeber correctly, if you put 350Z's stock spring to G35C it will lowered the G35C.

Honestly, you should just get RS-R spring that's designed for Z, it only drop 0.6 inches, not that much. I have been driving in city of LA and no problem.

Thanks. How does the ride and handling compare to stock?

Spring rates are screwed up for almost ALL springs offered for the G - that's why I've been looking towards purchasing the RS*R springs designed for the Z... all the G spring rates are stiffer in the front than in the rear, which ultimately increases understeer in an already understeer-prone vehicle...

Personally, I'd stick with the H-techs you have if you're worried about ride quality...

Ride is not that much different from stock, if there is, it's very minimum. Handling wise, the body roll is less, but if you want to notice big difference, coilover system is what you want. Unless, you get the springs and shocks together.
