The Pss10 is also valved differently vs the Pss9. John at Bilstein wasn't able to provided dyno plots, but he did send me a spread sheet which did show some basic valving differances. Their chart only listed 3 speeds, 2ips, 10ips and 20ips (comverted from meter's per second).

full soft front
low speed rebound -15%
low speed comp +29%
high speed rebound +8%
high speed comp +8%

full soft rear
low speed rebound +19%
low speed comp +62%
high speed rebound +33
high speed com +23%

full stiff front
low speed rebound +10%
low speed comp -2%
high speed rebound+4%
high speed comp-2%

full stiff rear
low speed rebound +42%
low speed comp +25%
high speed rebound +37
high speed comp +10

If you kill the progressive spring setup in the rear, your track experience will be a better one. I'm going to be working on a simple conversion adaptor to allow a 5" ID linear spring to be used with the Bilstein seat.

It probablly dropped it about 1.5 inches or more. The rear dropped about 1 inch as expected.

The issue is that the manual doesn't take into account the increased ride height in stock form on a G35 coupe vs. the 350z. They are revising the manual now to reflect this.

Now that I have everything dialed in properly I simply love this kit. I dropped about 1 inch in the front and about 3/4 inch in the rear. At full ride height in the rear, there was only about 1/2 an inch drop over the stock G35 coupe springs.

This really is a good kit and the ride quality is excellent.

Something doesn't add up. I hope for your sake one of is wrong. If I am right and you have little to no bump stoke, raise up the front. Your reality isn't supporting bilstein saying you should stop at 370mm.
