Default Quick question : Anyone knows the drop of Tanabe DF210's springs on a Z?

Actually I was wondering wether they're compatible with the Z, as I've only seen pics of them on G's. TIA.

The drop is:

Front: 1.7"
Rear: 1.3"

I would say that you pickup some Tanabe GF210 series instead for your Z. I sell those all day everday and I have had ZERO complaints!

Wouldn't you need the camber/toe kits also with this big a drop?

What would be a good set of drop with springs without the additional expense of buying the camber/toe kits? Someone had mentioned the Eibach Pro Kit. Is there anything else?

The majority of the people on the boards that are running with the Tanabe GF210 springs are not running a camber kit

+1 for Tanabe Sways!

Default GF210 springs

Hi,

How much are you selling those for? I'm looking to get a set asap, but I was looking at used ones as I'm keeping the car for 1.5 yrs so I wouldn't wanna spend much on it.. Let me know.
