New just released!

H&R Sport springs for the Nissan 370z. This is the perfect spring for those who are looking to do an occasional track day and also retain daily drivability. This will enhance the look of your vehicle with a reduced fender well gap. H&R Sport Springs provide a lower center of gravity and reduce body roll for better handling. The progressive spring rate design provides superb ride quality and comfort. You can’t go wrong with an H&R Sport spring kit.

Pricing too low to post on the forum. PM or e-mail for pricing.

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

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.

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.

These are a great upgrade for your 370z!

Bump!

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?

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.

According to Tanabes webpage.. the GF210 springs have a spring rate of 8.8k/9.1k, so 492.8 fronts and 509.6 rears.

Do we know what the spring rates are for the H&R Sport Springs ? If these really are stiffer than the Tanabes, then im sold...

Zeester,

I'm looking into the spring rates right now, I'll let you know asap with some numbers.

Awesome ! That would be a bigg help... much appreciated man

spring rates
 

I attempted to contact H&R about their spring rates but they said that that information was not available to the public. They mentioned to me that they test their springs differently and so the spring rates they have for their springs would not be comparible to other spring manufacturers. They said it was like comparing apples to oranges.

I'm going to have to give them a call today, because so far I have not been able to find what the spring rates are.

I'll see what I can get out of them, but I have a feeling it is going to be a similar answer to what you received.

Why is this such a well kept secret ? I dont understand why they wouldnt release it to stay competitive with other manufacturers, everyones looking to improve the handling dynamics of their cars when purchasing these, and spring rates are a big reason why they would choose one brand over the other.

I totally agree with you. I'm going to ask them why right now and see what they say.

Well, I just got off the phone with them. They basically said exactly what twotonezed said. They don't publish the spring rates for some unknown reason, and they said that it will improve handling of the vehicle and you will feel more of the road. He would not tell me if it was stiffer or softer than the competitors.

I'm sorry Zeester, I tried!

So no camber kit would be needed? An alignment would be sufficient to get it back to stock specs? Also would it be as low as your guys 370Z?
