NF210 Tanabe springs input
Hey guys...
Looking to drop my car and been looking at NF210s by tanabe. I had GF series on my other car before and I love them. Also stumbled on morejapan.com and found that they will be having a sale on the springs which should be a good timing for me.

What you guys think? any input on the springs?
Thanks

I would probably stick around and wait for this... just curious how much will it be. I know getting used is a good way to buy cheap. But I'm pretty **** about my parts lol... no offense! And of course there's always love in the sponsors.

1 inch drop = 1 inch less suspension travel, right.
Why would you drop 1 inch with zero increase in spring stiffness vs oem? You need some increase in stiffnes because of having less bump stroke.
2003-3004 oem spring rates
314/342
2004.5-2008 oem spring rates
314/427
Tanabe NF210 Series 350Z progressive springs 1.2”/1.2” higher
Spring rates in LBS 314/353
Your better off making another spring choice. And I do get it that we do have a certain number of owners that don't know what bad behavior is like and or are only concerned with looks. But for those that do care, I'd go with Eibach Prokit vs the NF or GF.
Eibach 350Z Pro-Kit progressive springs 1”/1”
Spring rates in LBS initial/final front 296/384 initial/final rear 316/421
