Infiniti G20, I30 and I35 Coilovers

Infiniti G20 coilovers are tricky to order because the car left the lineup after 1996 and came back in 1999, so "G20" can mean two different cars. Add the I30 and I35, and the names get easy to mix up. We group the eleven kits by chassis code, the code for each generation: P10, P11 and A33.

Not sure which chassis you have? Call and read us your VIN: 1-800-460-9106.

Animated illustration. It shows where coilovers sit on a car, not your exact kit. Depending on the car and the kit, coilovers can lean forward or back or stand straight up, and some cars use a separate spring and shock in the rear. Your ride height depends on the kit and how it is set up.

Telling these cars apart before you order

Three things decide which kit to order.

Which G20 you have

The 1991 to 1996 car is the P10, and the 1999 to 2002 car is the P11.

Which market your car was built for

Fortune Auto has separate P11 kits for UK and US/JDM cars.

I30 or I35

Ksport has a separate kit for each, both coded A33.

BC Racing coilovers, P10 and P11

BC kits fit both G20s but not the other two sedans

BC Racing makes two series for the Infiniti G20, I30 and I35: BR and DS. Free shipping on BC Racing kits in the continental US. DS comes on the P10 kit only, and the I30 and I35 have no BC kit.

Before you buy: what G20, I30 and I35 owners run into

The G20 was a compact sport sedan and the I30 and I35 were comfortable cruisers, each with a quiet following. The active owner forums for these cars are small now, and coilover reports are rare. On the I30 and I35, we could confirm one pattern.

Rear chirp from worn rear strut mounts
I30 and I35 (A33), 2000 to 2004

On Maxima.org, owners of the same-platform 2000 to 2003 Maxima traced a rear chirp to worn rear strut mount bushings, and new mounts stopped it for one owner. One 2004 I35 owner suspected the rear struts and mounts for a rear clunk over bumps. Old mount bushings can keep chirping if the kit reuses them.

Before you install: Check whether your kit comes with new rear upper mounts, and replace worn factory bushings if it reuses them.

G20 history

Gone in 1996, back in 1999

Infiniti's 1999 press kit says: "The first generation G20 was sold in North America from the 1991 through the 1996 model years."

  1. 1999
    The returnThe press kit says the July 1999 G20 made it the fourth model in Infiniti's lineup.
  2. 140 hp
    The engineThe press kit lists "an advanced, high revving 140-horsepower 16-valve dual overhead cam four-cylinder engine".

P10 or P11, UK or US, I30 or I35

Is my G20 a P10 or a P11?

The 1991 to 1996 G20 is the P10 and the 1999 to 2002 car is the P11, going by the kit names. Each generation has its own G20 coilovers, and no kit fits both.

Why does Fortune Auto list UK and US/JDM P11 kits?

Its P11 G20 kits are made for different markets. A US car takes the US/JDM kit, but call us if your car was imported.

Is there a kit for the I30 or I35?

Ksport lists one of each, coded A33. BC lists none.

What BC series can a G20 run?

The 1991 to 1996 kit comes in BR or DS, and the 1999 to 2002 kit in BR.

Is a BC G20 kit covered by warranty?

BC Racing North America currently lists a two-year limited warranty on full kit orders, subject to its warranty terms. Fortune Auto, TEIN and Ksport publish their own.
