350z Camber Arms

I have a G35 sedan, that is dropped on hotchkiss 350z springs and 350z shocks.

My camber is of course off.

My question is, since the 350z and G35 have the same suspension setup; Do the 350z camber arms fix the camber issue?

The h-kiss springs are a very very mild drop on a 350z, so mild that a camber kit isnt needed on a 350z. 350z oem springs on a g35 requires a camber kit and going even a lil bit lower on 350z h-kiss springs requires a camber kit even more on the g35 sedan.

So are the G35 camber arms and 350z camber arms the same? The 350z must have longer arms or something.

I think it has more to do with weight more than length of the arms. The g is a bit heavier than the z. I don't think swapping arms would help much if any.

Im talking about oem arms. If the part numbers are the same, then the arms have to be the same.

For example, 350z shocks bolt up to a G35 fine, but they are about 1 inch shorter, part numbers are different.

The z is lighter in weight than the sedan, but the sedan is lighter in weight than the G35coupe

All the suspensions are the same. The only difference is the spring length. You only need a camber kit on the sedan if you want to align back to the oem sedan specs. If you align to the Z specs, then they aren't needed. If you look at the alignment specs of the sedan, coupe, and Z, you will see that they each specify increasingly negative camber and toe in, and thus tire wear increases for each respective model as well.
