The 03-04 service manual calls for the following specs for 17 and 18 inch wheels. I don't think it would be any different for 19's and 20's. I had my 20's aligned within these specs.

Quote:

Front Camber
Minimum − 1°15′ (− 1.25°)
Nominal − 0°30′ (− 0.50°)
Maximum 0°15′ (0.25°)

Front Toe
Minimum 0 mm (0 in)
Nominal 1 mm (0.04 in)
Maximum 2 mm (0.08 in)

Rear Camber
Minimum − 1°45′(− 1.75°)
Nominal − 1°15′(− 1.25°)
Maximum − 0°45′(− 0.75°)

Rear Toe
Minimum 0 mm (0 in)
Nominal 2.8 mm (0.110 in)
Maximum 5.6 mm (0.220 in)

I've got to do some reading and refresh my memory on how to set up a suspension.

Not sure if you know, but i know there was a TSB somewhere about 03-04 coupes pulling to the right no matter what. If you take it in they replace some part on the car....

Where did you find them?

Your G looks great... Perfect drop...

I really like these springs. The ride and the spring rates are very close to stock but the drop was great. I scrape the front a lot though, and have to watch it on speed bumps.

I bought my springs from another member of this forum, but here is a link to a retailer that sells both the 350Z springs and the G35 springs:

Unfortunately I didn't have time to look at it this weekend. It probably won't be till this coming Saturday that I have a chance to take it to the shop, and I feel a run-around coming on.

I hope they got this fixed by '05, but it might be a possibility. My car tracked correctly on the stock setup. Unfortunately I can't remember when the pull showed up. I'm not sure if it was after I installed the springs and shocks, or the new wheels. I know the wider contact patch is more sensitive to the crown in the road, but I can travel on the left side of the road and eventually the car will work its way over the center line pulling to the right.

Wow, those fronts look like they would rub when turning and you hit a bump.

How much positive camber adjustment can you get without installing the spacers?? I have one front tire that is not within stock spec's and it has a -1.2 camber.

You are very close to being within specs. You will be fine without installing the hub spacers. You are within coupe specs, but just barely.

I don't have the sedan alignment specs handy at the moment, but you should be able to find them on Driver.
