well, i had my z now a few months and notice that the stock springs are a little soft. All I am looking for is a spring that I can use with fatory struts and not too low so I can still run stock arms. Is there a spring that doesn't lower the car too much and improve my soft ride. Or to do it right will I have to replace the front control arms and arms for the back. Or maybe a good coilover.

 

Hotchkis.. ? Thise are the ones I am leaning towards..

 

just got my tein s-techs. going with them and stock everything else.

 

Soft? I guess you don't drive a 2003 then lol.

 

I had these on my Maxima and I def would not recommend these. They are entirely too stiff I'd go over bumps and lose the fillings in my teeth!! The car handled like a pig but the ride was way too rough!

 

Tanabe GF210s. I love mine.

 

See my car domain site below (page 8) for pics.

 

Tanabe GF210

 

i have the same ones on my z and they ride great. smooth and not bouncy.

 

+1

 

dont compare springs from one car to another

S Techs leave a lot to be desired on lots of cars...but they work great on the Z.

Best ones all around are RSR...you won't find them anymore though in all liklihood as they are going through internal changes at the company.

Hotchkis, Tein S Tech, Tanabe are all excellent choices - moderate drop, improved looks and very compliant ride

 

with the Tanabe GF210 springs can I keep the stock suspension. Will I have to change anything.

 

Hotchkis TVS! Good drop with stock struts/shocks. No bump-steer issues, good looks and awesome ride. For the average driver med/med for the sways is great.
