Hi Guys, I'm looking to buy some Tanabe NF210 Springs off of a fellow CLer. The Problem is they are made for the GS4 and I have a GS3. Tanabe said they will not work b/c it has a different part number, but the two cars have the same suspension. Anybody have any ideas of whether it will work or not?

 

ive got the nf210's on my gs300 and im having no probs. gots mine from www.directtuning.com........ check it out!

 

do you have NFs from a GS4 on your GS3? that's the question.

i think Tanabe is the only suspention company that has a springs for the two diffrent models. If you look at all the other companies, they all use the same spring for both cars. However; there is a diffrence between the two models. i don't see it as an issue because 50lb don't make a big diffrence. they will work, but they have a diffrent spring rate from one model to the other. why, i don't know, but if it makes you feel any better, i have tein coilovers that are made for the GS3.
i odered for the GS4
hope this helps

 

Thanks Fonzy, you hit the nail on the head. I think I may just get the ones for the 300 to be safe. I also found a guy to install them in So cal for only $120!!!

 

I dont think you should worry about it.
its going to work cause I got a GS430 and order Gs300 NF210 spring install them and have no problems.

oh yeah, there are also diffrent in height. the GS4 NFs are 1.2" and .8" drop while the GS3 NFs are 1.5" and 1.0" drop
$120 is a good price and glad i could help.
