G35 sedan Suspension swap with 08 350z suspension

I finally got lucky and score some Z suspension for like $50 and manage to installed them the day before Christmas, pretty basic DIY took about 2 hrs total without break +a helping hand. Now it's more firmer and I love the 1" drop.

The taller one is from the sedan, shorter is from Z
