Anyone know if a sedan kit for an 07+ G35 (6383.140) work on a 09+ G37?

If this info helps anyone...

Called Eibach. Said the rear springs are actually the same part number. The front max spring rate for the G35 kit (6383.140) is 480lbs while the front for the G37 kit (6390.140) is 548lbs. Same min spring rate...280-ish. I don't remember exactly. The guy said the probable result is that the front may sit slightly lower at rest and be slightly softer driving.

This may help~I purchased B&G S2 springs for an 07-08 G35 which were rated as a 1.4" drop F&R, I ended up w/ the perfect drop IMO, it came out to 2" Front and 1.5" Rear.
I'd imagine the Eibach kit for an 07-08 would perform about the same giving you an additional 1/2" drop in the fron and the rear wouldn't change from the 07-08 drop.

Did you wet sand and buff the paint on your car? It sure doesn't look like the typical orange peel paint on Infiniti...

No, the orangepeel is still around, not too bad, but for an upscale brand you'd expect better. I'm ashamed of the paint chips on the front, now that's really a bummer

Beautiful G. Nice drop. Off topic but yes, the paint is quite disappointing
