can u do this on a 05 g35x? just seeing if it would be cheaper to do this than replace the entire control arm as they dont sell a decent ball joint replacement. Just pm me if u have any info.

Thanks

Ok so I spent hours reading through this and I haven't really found a straightforward answer so I'm going to ask...

I have a 03 sedan on a staggered set of rims. 19s in front, 20s in back. The rear suspension gives too much (car squats too much in the rear on full throttle, up steep driveways one side seems to travel all the way to the point that the 20s rub on the top inside of the fender , also on huge bumps while driving the wheels seem to move up and down too much) .
As far as I know the car does not have the sport suspension but im not 100% on that.

Is it possible to stiffen things up in the rear without having to drop? Or is this a good sign that the suspension is worn?

I just had the front right shock replaced and the car has about 120k miles...

There was no way to get non-sport struts on a 6MT, so someone has swapped them already. It might be worth your while to clean them off & find a part number. It's unlikely, but you may have some good performance struts on there already, which could save you some $. On the other hand, someone could have thrown base model struts on it, so it's worth a look.

^Good call! I didn't even think about that, but you're right.

In 2006 the sport struts/shocks were black not red.

So guess i do ha, well sweet! It did ride pretty stiff for "stock" but i like the ride stiffer Still will prolly go for the Blues for struts. The car is bone stock un molested when i bought it with 30,000 miles. When i get back in the ol usa ill pull some numbers.

Thanks guys

I just bought a full oem 03 350Z suspension including shocks and springs. Will I get alot of bounce if I install them on a 04 coupe? At first I wanted to only lower slightly and keep the stock ride quality but now I've read alot of people are complaining about bounce.

Should I install them or not? Please let me know so I don't end up putting them on and regret.
