Truth to be told there isn't a solution for the AWD yet. People use Eibach springs, but those are design for the RWD. Funny how you photoshop the trunk too.

eibach now also makes springs specifically for the awd now (both the coupe and the sedan). They've been out for quite a while. And there's always coilovers

Eiback website clearly sates: "Excluding AWD" for the Sedan. Thanks for the heads up. I'll look into it.

Edit: Did some research, and I was right. No Eibach Springs for the G37x Sedan. People use Springs for the Journey, which give you a funny drop. It drops the back more than the front.

Aren't the suspension the same between 07-08 and 09-11? If so, look for part # 6399.140. It was designed specifically for the G35X, and raises the rear to even out the gap.

I think 10-11 are different.

FYI, Swift gave a rough ETA for their G37x springs... 2 more months. Really worth waiting for those.

Yes, I think the Swift is going to be a nice kit. Mild drop, less than one inch. Just perfect.

I've been running the RWD sedan Eibach's on my '10 X for almost a year now with no issues whatsover. Ride quality is very close to stock, imo. Check out a previous thread here:

I'm looking forward to the Swift springs as well when they become available. Don't want too aggressive of a drop so they seem to fit the bill quite well, and also seem to have high praises from a lot of people on the forum.
