Lowering The V35

[Hill Billy]

My V35 coupe has just landed this week, so I should be taking delivery of it pretty soon.

Im looking at lowering it slightly. About 1 inch, just enough to fill the gap.

Im just after a set of springs to use with the standard shocks at the moment. I havent found any Aussie companies that do springs for the V35. And after reading the G35Driver forum it seems that 350Z springs will lower a V35 an extra half inch than a 350Z.

So if I got 350Z King Springs (low) for a 350Z it might be a bit too low. I dont want it sitting too low and have to fork out extra for camber kits etc.

Would I be better off getting something like Tein S-Techs, specificly for the G35? They seem pretty common for the guys in the US.

US$254 shipped to Aus (about AUS$300)

Well this is what mine looks like with Z springs on 19's. Personally its the right height.

yeah i think standard Z springs might be a good option mate

They are lowered Z springs- not stock ones.

1inch down.

Yep i had 350z Tein H-techs on my old V35 and had no probs fitting them at all. The only thing was that they were just nt as firm as i would have liked. I know have Nismo springs and shocks in my current 35 and it is miles ahead in terms of cornering. The ride is slightly harsher but nothing that would I class as annoying.

I paid around $350 US shipped to my door, from the US.

hey mate,

The NISMO came with the V35 I now have. The Tein's I ordered from G35Driver.com.

Sorry should have been clearer. The Teins were $350

I would have thought Nismo spring and shocks are softer than Tein..

Was that the Nismo S-Tune you had, or the Nismo G Attack?
