Default whats a good spring for tokico d spec?

i was actually thinking of tein h techs. Im not sure on how the ride quality is going to be. I just one something just as good as stock. If anything, i want the ride to feel like stock.

You don't say if you want it any lower or what year you have.

Check out GSedan35's post in this thread
https://my350z.com/forum/brakes-and-suspension/154233-spring-rate-database.html
It shows the stock rates and the rates and drops for many aftermarket springs. You will find most are not much stiffer than stock and some are softer.

The D-Specs will work fine with the stock springs if you want to keep the hight and the ride quality.

D-specs are really good shocks, they will be fine with H-techs, though you may prefer something with a bit more then .3"/.2" drop that they'll give you, I dunno.

according to the spec sheet, the tokico springs are a good choice also, but they drop a bit more than what you want. The spring rates are only slightly stiffer than stock.

Don't get the H.tech. You will be dramatically disappointed in the drop. Get the S.Tech if anything to match the D-Spec.
