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?

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.

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

but this isn't a 350Z, and the dampers are different

The G37 and 370Z ones interchange

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 ?
