I have them. Ride is pretty good, better than stock. I'd recommend them. The only thing I don't like is that they don't drop the rear enough.

You won't be keeping your drop to a minumum with Tanabe NF's (or GF's for that matter)

Your minimum drop choices are

Spring rates in LBS 358/375

Espelir 350Z progressive springs .4"/.4"
Spring rates in lbs 386/515 (peak rates, initial rates are unknown)

Tein S-tech 350z (fronts are progressive, rears are linear) .7”/.6”
Spring rates in lbs 386/402 (final rates only, softer initial front progressive rate unknown)

Don't forget about the Espelir "Active Super Down" spring set

i have them, have had them for about 6-8 months now. i'm still using my stock shocks, which i think i should replace right about now, but what the hell. i don't have the money right now for new shocks.

but to answer your question, i don't think they are bad springs. they lower nicely (not too much). the ride quality is a little stiff in my opinion, but it's not that bad because it's expected when you lower your car right? anyways, i hope that helps. good luck!

arent the Active GT's like performance/handling springs ? id say theyd be pretty harsh & wont lower the car much...they'll be stiff tho...improve handling alot

They lower the car .4" They use higher then normal peak spring rates, but trade performance and peak handling because they are progressive with wide rate spreads (given the number of coils that bind).
