Help "unlowering" the car

Hi. I'm looking at purchasing a lightly modified 2004 G35 6MT coupe later today. It's got an injen full exhaust (which I like) and has been lowered with eibach springs, which I'm not crazy about.

I'd like to restore the ride to its original suspension. I'm wondering whether this is just a question of finding the right springs and having them swapped, or if there is more to it?

If so, what else will I need?

According to the receipts from the current owner, a camber kit was not installed.

Finally, I understand that a lowered suspension setup is desirable by many. Do you think there's any chance of finding someone with the stock suspension who'd want to swap? I'd be happy to do that if they'd be willing to pay for the labor.

Should just be a simple swap back to stock springs if you want the stock spring rates and height. Look in the suspension classifieds. I'm sure you'll be able to find someone selling or giving away their stock springs.

Welcome to Driver darkfyre!

If you lived in SoCal you could have my sport springs to bring your G back to stock height, otherwise check our Marketplace under private classified for someone in your area selling theirs. You'll just need to swap springs and get an alignment...easy stuff!

I haven't done the research yet but if the sedan springs fit, you can buy mine. (Only if they fit)
