GF210 vs.NF210 vs.Tein s techs
I'm trying to decide between these three springs. So any input would really help me.
Background: I use my car as a DD, I am running 275/40/18 in rear and 245/40/18 up front. And i do not want to have to roll my fenders. My next purchase, other than exhaust, will be the Greddy lip kit.
Also, will the 350evo sway bars work with the injen exhaust?
Thanks for any and all help.

Believe me, i have been searching. I have been looking at all the pictures posted too. Trying to get a picture of how low the car will be, but it seems that most are running 19's, where i am on 18's.

All 3 springs I believe are progressive so it would not be ideal for track or autocross use. If it is for every day driving then progressive springs will be fine. Between the 3, I would go with Tanabe GF210's. I have them on my 350Z and was very happy with them. It lowers the car an inch in the front and 1.2 inches in the rear. The drop is perfect for 19 inch wheels, especially after they settle in. The spring rates are higher than stock but not high to the point where it sacrifices drivability. Real world driving, the car drives like stock but steering and cornering is improved and becomes more responsive.

+1 I have GF210's and I run 275/40R18 in the rear with no rubbing. Great springs, I think it rides slightly smoother than stock and I have used them for auto-x... way better than stock. Car is much stiffer and center of gravity is definitely lower.. Crisper turn-in is the most noticeable upgrade with these over stock IMHO (besides the lowering they provide, fits perfect to "tuck" the wheels/tires)

I have had both the Tein S-Techs and now the Tanabe GF 210s. The difference to me is night and day. I love the GF 210s. They are a must! Here is my car on the GF 210s with 18s.
I will post my same car with the TEIN Stechs and you will see the difference with this pic above.

I was looking at both GF210 and Ti2000 as well.
The RS-R Ti2000's are a scam, the actual Ti content is very very low to justify the 3x price (the Ti claim is simply for marketing) and they are a hot wound spring to boot.
I've been very happy with my GF210's :thumbsup: Many good reviews on them. They may have some progressive coils which is why the ride so nice, but they should do well at auto-x too. Well balanced, perfect drop.
