Unhappy 350z Teins on G35 Problem

Early this morning i install the rear Tein S-techs from a 350z. I got because i heard it delivers a lower drop. When I was done the drop didn't look more than a finger difference than OEM. Is there anything i couldve done wrong or is that the drop i should expect. Any help would be appreciated.

S-techs nor h-techs have an aggressive drop compared to tanabe's or eibach's.... seems right to me

I put Tein springs on my Z...but they were made for the Z. Did you post on G35Driver.com?

You have to drive around for a week or two for the spring to settle, it should drop a little bit more after it settles.

You need to release the preload on all of the rear control arm bushings. Other wise you may damage the rear control arm bushings. Just doing that should lower your car another 1/2". You should also release the preload on all of the front control arm bushings.
