Will these coilovers fit on a g37x awd coupe

Found a used set of BC Racing BR type coilovers. It was used on a 370z and the seller says it will fit all g37's including the awd coupe. His mechanic said the g37x has the same suspension set up as the 370z and g37s, don't think this is right..

it probly does have the same suspension bits but when you add the extra weight of the x and the different weight bias it'll probly not ride right. the z and g are both built on the same platform, FM i believe. i wouldnt try it unless you dont mind being a guinea pig.

Incorrect.

You have a front axle, which the RWD does not,.
The front strut has been designed to go around it.
Different!!

^ this plus.. The coilovers that are sold as g37/370z compatibility worry me. 370z 3,200-3,300lbs. The G37x is fat girl at 3,960lbs. Using the same spring rates... Not going to be happy.

Also Weight distr. is 56/44 and 54/46.

Nope. Not sure on how exactly they're different, but you do get a RWD/AWD specific set.

I've seen rear rubber mounts dry rot and so forth. Just spend the few bucks and get them new and have a professional install. It's all about the adjustments

Thanks for your input! I decided to just go with new ones
Trying to see if we can get a group buy going before I buy.
