Megan Racing AWD Springs g37x 09

Hello all! - This is my first post & I have a question pertaining to Megan Racing Products

Is anyone familiar with the new Megan Springs available for the AWD Sedan? . . looking to put some springs on my AWD 09 G and I just noticed that Megan has come out with a Spring set made for AWD Sedans that offer a 1.2 & 1.25 Drop . . . Is this a reputable company to try these springs out? Noticed no one has these installed yet fore they just released in April.

Any thoughts or recommendations?

I have their coilovers and have been quite happy w/ them. Megan products are a lower cost option for most of their product line so people that haven't actually used their products assume "you get what you pay for". This can be the case, but IME they've been a good purchase, and if you read reviews on their products from people that actually have used them most of the reviews are positive.

Sounds good, be sure to post pics over in the Sedan section, always nice to have more options for the AWD Gs

I had megan springs on my G25x. I really liked them! I ended up getting front Megan coils to lower the front more.

Megan racing is known for having inexpensive parts. however their products have been great to me so far. I have their coilovers on my S14 drift car and few other parts. They are based out of California so their service is great. I destroyed one corner on my S14 and I was able to call them to buy a single coilover, I got it within a week too.

i just lowered on megan springs on saturday.over all i can say the ride quality is good thus far. ride is only harsh when hitting hard bumps im the ground but i assume thats a given on springs.

though they advertise to give basically an even 1.3 drop front and back the back does sit lower than the front at first. I can say since saturday after driving around a lot the front is starting to even out. I'll post more pictures later this week after my alignment but you can see what i've posted already in the " show off your sedans " thread as well as my garage.

I love the drop height it gave me though exactly what i was looking for . . doesn't scrape unless im going into a pretty steep drive way but I do cut it close on my own drive way here are a few shots.

It takes some getting used to, I was quite a bit lower with a steeper drive and eventually mastered the perfect attack angles. But my front bumper edge and exhaust tips out back took a beating while I was figuring it all out
Looks like a nice drop

the drop looks nice. Just keep an eye on them, i had megan springs on my Saab 9-3 and they rusted VERY quickly.

Can you give me the part # of your springs? And what tires are you running?

Has anyone else used these Megan springs on their X?
From the pictures on their website the car looks like it is sitting pretty low compared to stock. The springs rates look very similar to Swifts and lowering almost the same, a little more in the back. They are really cheap on Amazon as well, $120.

I have a g25x but Megan racing does not make lowering springs for this type of model. Is there any way I can use the g37 ones or a g35 because it’s almost identical to the g37 I think the engine liters is the only difference?

There's a weight difference so the drop in front might not be as much, but other than that they should work ok.
