Default RSR Springs

I recently purchased a used G35 coupe and with the money I saved I am planning to make a few mods to the car including wheels/tires, clear corners, z-tube intake, popcharger, grounding kit, etc.

I was interested in information about the RSR springs and if anyone knows the spring rates, lowering stats, and where to buy (and how much) that would be excellent...

also, if anyone is wanting to sell their z tube for cheap, please reply...

Thanks guys!

I bought my RS*R springs from Adam@Z1 Performance

About a half inch drop

zero bounce (better ride than stock) and great handling...

I also added Nismo sway bars.... the combination of my wider tires, better springs and thicker sway bars is a real eye opener in the twisties.... handles as well or better than my '03 Z06..amazing car!

ZXiMan,

The RSR springs get rid of the bounce? What did it do to your camber and all that stuff? I am looking for an inexpensive way to get rid of the bounce without having to mess with camber and all that.

I'm also looking into the RS*R down springs. ZXiMan, do you have any other photos of your car with the RSR springs, possibly some that show the amount of gap left after the spring install? I'm waiting for my 19x9.5 and 19x10.5 to come in next week, and will do the lowering springs before I put on the new wheels. With the RS*R springs and the 10.5" +22 rear wheels, did you end up rolling your fenders?

As for the bounce, the RS*R springs have nearly the same stiffness as stock. In fact, they are 2lbs/in softer, which is practically negligible. They shouldn't have affected the ride quality, but should have increased handling due to lower CG of the vehicle.
