The only GT-S listed on their site is for the Genesis
350Z is listed as GT-F..although they do show it as GT-S in the OP here.
They don't show all the specs for 350Z GT-F on the site, but the DROP is the same as advertised here (as GT-S), so I *think* they're talking about *GT-F* on this thread. Only way to find out is by calling them for clarification.

Here is what they say about GT-S Springs:


S Lowering Spring

ARK Performance now offers high quality lowering spring kits that provides comfort with better performance for your suspension needs. ARK GT-S Lowering Springs are more aggressive than the GT-F Lowering Springs, designed to provide drivers dramatic improvement and adapt immediately in better handling and cornering to the characteristics of your car. Every driver will feel and notice a significant response of a race car, having better cornering grip entering and exiting out of turns with less body roll, with a lowered center of gravity while maintaining smooth and comfortable ride characteristics for daily driving.

ARK GT-S Series Lowering Springs are designed by our suspension engineers and tested by professional drivers for a more aggressive drop/stance to deliver the best ride quality and performance without neglecting the driver's safety on and off the track. Our springs is the perfect combination with your stock shock absorbers, and provides an excellent stance with your stock or aftermarket wheels keeping your tires on the road for maximum grip. For each spring we use only the highest grade steel and leading coiling method technology powdered coated to prevent corrosion. ARK GT-S Lowering Springs provides a more aggressive drop compared to the GT-F Series for the ultimate suspension balance to take your passion and give you the confidence on any road

Just to clear things up with everyone on the springs. We are going to have two spring applications for the 350Z. The GT-S is the more aggressive drop and the GT-F is less of a drop. We won't be able to provide the final numbers on the GT-F springs until they arrive (which is very soon)!! Thanks for your patience everyone!

Do you mean GT-S right there? The GT-F is already listed on your website.

You're totally messing with my head here. Is this thread about the GT-S or GT-F springs?

I didn't know they were a knock-off shop. I've read that the springs and exhaust systems are quite impressive.

Well, they initially stated the DROP (and rates) and I don't think they can be GT-S with that modest drop. So, I'm gonna go with GT-F here.
I'm lovin' those rates.
