Hi guys,

up for grabs are a set of 350z stock suspension. It has served me well for the 30+ks and upon removal showed no signs of leaks. This is the best bang for buck suspension mod especially for V sedans as it lowers it approx 1". a moderate but noticeable drop while retaining ride comfort and increasing handling and still completely legal height. For V coupes, this will lower your car approx 1/2". This is the springs and shocks made by tokico and came standard on 350zs.

$200 firm pick up preferred Brisbane southside. Thanks.

I can vouch for 350z springs on a sedan too. I have the 05 revised springs which have a higher rear spring rate, but they don't feel any rougher than the stock springs. I also had the 'sports' stock suspension (red struts).

As you can see from the above pics, the wheels fill the guards much better on the lower springs.

I don't have much issue with driveways or car park speed bumps, but I need to be careful of gutters or parking bump stops

Yes.

There are some different rear spring rates from the 350Z depending on the spec and year, but they will all fit.

I have uprated 350Z springs in my sedan (fronts are same rating as stock, rears a firmer) and the ride is fine. I am also using the V35 shocks, which I think are 'sports' shocks in the manual sedan (painted red), assuming it is the same as the G35 information.

If you have the non-sport suspension currently (softer springs), then it is probably worth updating the shocks to something to match the stiffer 350Z springs.

Thanks Greg,

So which 350Z year, spec has the same or closer spring rate as the stock V35 coupe 03 non-sport? 350z touring 03?

Thanks

I think the pre 05 350Z springs have the same spring rate as the coupe and the sedan with sports suspension, as far as I know, only the non-sport sedan received softer springs.

I found most of my info here.

it gives you a reference for the coloured dots on the factory springs against spring rate and which vehicle they are for.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
