Assuming you own a Z, I'd sell them. The springs rates are a lot softer on the G35 version, especially in the rear.

so it's better just to sell them huh? the thing that tipped my off was that the s-techs for the G35 are 1" drop...the ones for the Z are .6"...

It's up to you. Lots of G35C guys run 350Z springs and it adds 1/2" to the overall drop, so I assume the reverse would have an opposite effect. It would probably end up being about a .6" drop. My pet peeve about the Tein springs is that they drop the front more than the rear, although only slightly. I personally think you would be better off pairing those Koni's with either RS*R or Hotchkis springs.
