There are no V1 or V2 made at all - no idea if they will, or won't, as the V3 was the most popular for the 350Z, and I suspect will be for the 370Z as well

really? no v2 made for the 370z? then why does that yellow 370z the guy posted on here have them?

I guess there is a fine line between asking a question and arguing. Probably even moreso since apprantly you don't have the car, yet are in tons of threads asking question after question. There certainly is room in a forum for fans of a car who aren't owners - but maybe a better course of action is to just take a step back for a second and take the time to just read and learn, vs questioning everything. Does it matter if there is a V2, or a V3, or a V94,156, if you don't have the car anyway? Call me crazy :)

As mentioned in post #65, it's clearly a typo. As I mentioned earlier, the only coilover made is the V3, and it's technically for the G37. There are 0 official 370Z part #'s as of now (the G37 kit fits and works well as mentioned), and there is no V1 nor a V2 now, or planned for the immediate future for either platform.

Thats toohip, and he'll tell you that the Altered page has it incorrect and he had the variant 3 installed. But to make sure I'd just pm him and ask or he'll see this and post as well.

Yeah I looked on the page and having owned a set of V3(and loving them) on my 350z I can say those are not the V3 because they don't have the external reservoir thing on the rears.:tup:

ALSO as soon as the V3 come out someone let me know so I can buy them.

Yeah but even on other vehicle the 3's have the external reservoir(on the ones i've seen) Aren't KW coilovers shock dyno'd for each vehicle application ? So if I buy them for the g37 they wouldn't be the same for the 370z would it since they have difference body styles and such ?

370Z's and G37's are nearly identical cars - same platform, same suspension

Some V3's have resevoirs, some don't, it's application specific

The G37 and 370Z do not have external resevoirs

Anyway, I just got the email about the v3 for the 370Z. Height range is the same as the G37, I'd imagine the rates are the same too, but being the holiday, I have no way to find out.
