Great looking drop. Not sure if it would matter with the Nismo alignment specs, but I was able to get my front end back in stock specs with the Eibachs.

Another great picture by Waizzz... please ignore the road dust on my rear =P
|
my teins dropped my front an inch and my front camber is now at -1.6 degrees. just food for thought.
|
I wish these front springs had less drop in the front, or I might be all over them when available. 1" is a lot for the front....not for fender gap, but for alignment. And I'm not happy with any of the front camber kits I'm seeing out there.
I love that the rear is only a 0.5" drop though....that's perfect to me. I have regular Eibach right now, and the inside edge of the front tires are wearing really fast with a 0.9" front drop. I'm either selling these springs and raising the car up, or getting a front camber kit. Minor camber wear is fine, but severe camber wear is just stupid to me with what 19" tires cost. I'm still searching for the factory alignment specs...anyone got a link that can help? |
Nismo Eibach Springs
I purchased a 2010 Nismo and interested in lowering the car and have been told that the Tein S-Tech's are the way to go. However, I've always been a fan of Eibach and was happy to see your post. Can you provide an update for me? Is the kit available now? If so, where can I get it from? If not, when can we expect it to be on the market?

Nismo 370Z specific Eibach Pro-Kit performance springs on sale now on their website.
|
So these are specifically for the Nismo 370Z model?
|
Sweet...I might have to get these :tup:
|
WOOOOOOOOOOO! ive been waiting for these...
imperial: can you confirm that you dont need camber adjustments for the rear? just the front? FYI: part number for nismo is #63103.140; while regular z's are #6393.140 |
No alignment kits were use whatsoever on my vehicle during development and they managed to get it within the upper limits of stock alignment specifications.

Just called Eibach to find out what the spring rates are for the Nismo. And I'm not going to lie. The car looks good but Im going to pass on this.
The 370z is already well balanced out of the box I do not need it to induce understeer. The stock Nismo rates are F- 8.6 R- 9.3 The Eibach rates for the normal Z F- 8.6 F- 9.5 The Eibach Nismo Rates are F- 9.8kg R- 9.5 which is a 14% increase in the front and 2% increase in the rear. I dont see why they would set this car up like this. They completely switched up the spring rate bias from front to rear. And a front heavy spring like that will not only induce understeer, but the valving range of the shock is also slightly altered, the rear rates being extremely close to stock, and then the front rates are more sprung. Even though it is within the valving range of the shocks, if Nismo really did a good job fine tuning their shocks then these springs will throw off the original feel Nismo was going for. Just to show you the rest of the spring rates Tein s-tech - F- 8.5 R- 9.4 Tanabe NF F- 5.9 R- 6.8 Tanabe GF F- 8.8 R- 9.1 Swift Spec R F- 10 R-10.5 So just about every spring manufacturer out there pretty much decreases the rates of our nismo which pretty much completely dtunes our upgraded shocks. Eibach although stiffer, went in a weird direction with their spring rates, and will alter the handling characteristics of the Z Swift is the only one by numbers is a performance option for our Nismo shocks. these are all converted to kg/mm if you guys want me to post it up in pounds per inch I can do that later. |
