Default Tanabe Springs question.

So Im looking to purchase a set of Tanabe DF210s for my Z but they are for a G35 and they do not make the Tanabe DF210 for the Z so I am wondering if they will fit and if the drop they claim will be the same. Any help is greatly appreciated

thats off their site, 1.7in front and 1.3 rear.

first off the Z already sits higher in the rear 1.7F and 1.3 R would make it ridiculous which is why most springs for the Z drop the rear more than the front. if you are looking for a drop slightly more aggressive than the gf210 get the nf210 and cut the rear spring mount.

that didnt answer any part of my question.

Will they drop the same on a Z as they do a G? what are the differences in springs and spring rates is mainly what im asking

in that case tanabe lists the spring rates of their springs and if you dont know the factory rates search they are listed everywhere. typically 350Z springs on a G will sit about 1/2" lower. sorry for the common sense on my first post, but i would order Z springs for a Z and G springs for a G
