Beautiful shot.


Funny how some people get saggy rears with the Tanabe's and some don't... It seems to have something to do with the front to rear weighting on the X models Vs. the RWD models. I had Tanabe springs on my car (RWD sedan) for a couple of years and loved them. The car had absolutely no sag in the rear... I've since sold the springs to another G owner who also reports no saggy rear. So maybe you should look for a RWD sedan owner to sell your used Tanabe's to.

Yeah, the Tanabe uses the same part # for the entire G line, AWD, RWD, coupe Sedan, so YMMV.

Those are the correct front mounts for the AWD. How do you plan on getting the car aligned up front? When you start dropping the alignment gets out of wack in a hurry. You will need some upper arms depending on how low you plan to go. Hope everything goes smooth on the install.

BTW, what's the pricing on those if you don't care to mention?

Edit: Hopefully they came with ABS / Brake line brackets are you're going to need to make your own.

Alright guys the coils went on pretty easy! The only snag we ran into was how to keep the brake lines from dangling around since there wasn't a bracket for them! But other than that they went on fairly nice! G37X Sedan With Stance Coilovers-photo887.jpg

Must say, that looks sweet, wheel choice & drop are looking spot on!
Surprised about the lack of a brake line bracket, I'd contact the vendor about that.

Wheels look great. Can't wait to hear your driving impressions with the full coilover set-up in the rear.
