I've been waiting for this post. Did H&R provide any info on use with stock shocks?

Dustin@AEperformance 03-03-2010 02:24 PM

H&R say that the springs will work fine with the stock shocks. I have personal experience with H&R springs on the G35 with stock shocks and it worked perfectly, no premature wear of the shocks.

This is a great new product!

Bump!

Dustin-Are these stiffer or softer than the Tanabe GF210's? What would you compare them to? Heard that the H&R springs usually run a little stiffer than OEM...but softer than a lot of the other "performance" tuned springs. Is this correct?

I am scraping things on the ground with the Tanabes already at .8 drop in front...wonder what a 1.3 drop would do to the front lip.

Dustin@AEperformance 03-05-2010 06:12 PM

Through some research, I have come to conclude that the H&R sport springs are a little bit stiffer than the Tanabe GF210.

According to H&R's website, the sport spring is anywhere from 25-40% stiffer than stock. Tanabe's website states that the GF210 ranges from 20-30% stiffer than stock, depending on vehicle.

Overall, they are very close in spring rate so I would guess that they ride similarly.

Regards,


Dustin

These are a great upgrade for your 370z!

Dustin@AEperformance 03-10-2010 01:45 PM

How would they compare against the Eibachs?

The H&R springs are stiffer than the Eibach pro kit. They will also allow for more cornering performance than the Eibach's.

Let me know if I can help you with anything else.

How about the drop, which one would be lower/aggresive look?

Dustin@AEperformance 03-12-2010 05:43 PM

The H&R sport spring lowers the 370z more than the Eibach.

H&R drops the car 1.2" front and 1.0" rear and the Eibach Pro kit drops the car .9" front and .8" rear.

The H&R setup gives the 370z a good aggressive look.

Dustin

anyone got a pic
 
I was wondering if anyone had an actual pic of H&R springs on their Z with 19's on it. How much work is needed to be done on the camber? Thanks.

So would it be safe to say that these are the stiffest springs available for the 370Z so far ?

I personally don't have a pic of the H&R springs on a 370z. I'll look online to try to find some pictures and I'll post them up if I find any.

Regarding the camber, All you'll need is an alignment to get the toe back in spec. I personally like to run some negative camber, it wont be a huge issue with tire wear, and it will help with the handling. Camber isn't what heavliy wears tires, toe being out of spec is.

From the spring rates I have looked at, I would have to answer yes. I personally haven't driven a 370z with the H&R sport springs so I can't give you a for sure answer.

I had the H&R sport springs on my G35 Coupe, and they weren't very stiff. They actually rode pretty nice, but gave it a pretty aggressive drop.

Let me know if I can help you guys with anything else.
