Is there anyway to tune the suspention?

Im a G35 owner of a year now. i found that the suspension of this car is too hard that makes the ride so stiff. Im living in LA area where the roads condition are not so good, so is there any way to soft the suspension to make the ride more comfortable?

Normally shocks control impact stiffness and rebound harshness, adjustable units are available.
Same with adjustable sway bars which usually have a softer than oem setting and rubber bushings can be selected to delay the action of sway bar engagement.

I am assuming the vehicle is stock and not lowered which of course adds severe shocks to system.

DEALERS are not automotive engineers or scientists, they just follow instructions in FSM.
If you wish to redesign your suspension, I would suggest a 4 year course in Mechanical engineering.

Tires can be selected to be less agressive and softer sidewalled.
Changing the sidewall ratio upward 40>45>50>55>60 is usually the least expensive method to reduce impact harshness.
