Eibach Pro Kit G37x

Ok so my friend bought me Eibach pro kit from Craigslist for my G37x. I went ahead put it on without double checking and I notice it sits a little lower in the rear. Go to check the Box and it's Eibach pro line 6393.140 which is for a 370z apparently for AWD G37 it's 6394.140. Should I take them Off? Nothing feels off or wrong just looks low in the back. I'd appreciate the help.

What year is your car? Eibach made a G37x spring kit for the 09 and earlier cars, but do not specify a kit for the 10 and newer cars. If you measure your car you'll more than likely find that the car is pretty close to even, it's just the design of our wheel wells that make the car look lower in the rear. Swifts are the only spring I know of that address this and have an "even" ride height to the naked eye.

If they fit and you like the way it looks and feels, why mess with it?

Maybe just do this for the rear to even it up:

To start off I have a 2012 g37xS sedan with Eibach Pro Kit Springs #6399.140 which is originally for the g35x sedan. The fronts were a struggle compared to the rears as far as replacing them. The spring compressor I had could not even fit on the Eibach setup so I had no choice but have the dealer compress them on the strut for me. The rear struts can be done with a jack and 17mm wrench, literally took me 45 minutes from start to finish wheel removal and all for the rear springs. After the spring setup was complete I was a little dissatisfied with the stance being that the rear did sag about 1/2 inch more so than the front. To compensate for this I did a lot of research and made some calls, but I went and added a coil spring isolator to the top of each of rear spring. This was just enough to lift the rear about 1/2 inch and I am very very happy now with the look and the feel is amazing as well.








Before Isolator.





After Isolator installed.





Isolator installed on spring.

Eibach's sit lower in the rear compared to the front and make sure the Eibach logo isn't upside down.

It's a 2012 G37x. I was only worried because I've heard people talking about that all wheel drive.

It's wheel choice that affects the AWD system, not springs.

That could work, but you would be better off trimming the rear bumper bracket with a Dremel. You only need to leave the part that is actually screwed together.

Or better yet, sell me your 15mm spacers, lol.

I have 6394.140 on my 10x sedan
