Hi guys,
I have a 2013 g37x coupe with the monster truck fenders. Just installed tanabe springs professionally today. however, I am not quite happy with the way it turned out. Tanabe website claims it drops the front 1 in and back 0.7 in. But it definitely dropped the rear of my coupe more than the front. I am attaching comparison image of of g37x from the tanabe website and my coupe. Clearly my rear is more dropped than front. Anyone else had this issue? any remedies? I haven't got an alignment yet.

Not sure why Tanabe uses the same exact part # for all G lowering applications but having them drop lower in back is a common issue~

Here's a fix that should prove better, start here than scroll down for additional posts by Quigs1591

Thank you!!! What I do not understand is the picture posted by tanabe of g37x does show an even gap in front and back. How did mine end up looking a little off?

 

Quite normal.

 

If it makes you feel any better, Eibachs on my S makes the front look noticeable lower than the back.

 

Same here but with Tein S techs. The rear is tucking tire, the front is perfect.

 

Anyone try the solution with energy suspension coil spring for the rear? I PMed one of the person who tried it but he didn't get back to me regarding how it's holding up.

 

Also doesn't explain how tanabe was able to achieve the even drop on the X as posted on their picture

 

Tanabe has a history of the back dropping lower on the AWDs, maybe that pic was taken before any settling in the back perhaps

Hopefully the member that used those coil sleeves can get back to you, as that seems to be the best way to address this.
