Default Greddy Type-S suspension anyone?

Has anyone put these new coilovers on their car yet? What are the spring rates?

I have to admit that I haven't been interested in the product enough to even try to get the spring rates, though it's refreshing to see a Japneese product talk about lower spring rates vs the usual JDM idea that super stiff is all they can kick out the door. IMO, buying them will be a very tuff sell since by and large they do not have a Tein or HKS like reputation that you as a buyer can bank on. They may be the greatest Z33 product to date, but paying that much to dive into uncharted waters may more for even this community may be willing to do.

I never knew that Greddy or Trust make suspension setup, all they mostly do is Engine MOD

I ordered them this week. We will let you know our opinion. Since this will be the third coilover set-up we will be using on one of our in house 350zs. First Cusco, then and still HKS and now we will be putting the GReddy coilovers on our second shop car.

The features look pretty good so far from their website.



And at a MSRP price of $1780 for the Z33, it doesn't seem that outrageous. But yeah, they are unproven suspension wise so looking forward to reviews and impressions first.
