Question about sport pkg for 2003

I have a question about the optional sport package for the G35 coupes in 2003: does it include a different, more aggressive suspension set-up over a coupe that isn't equipped with the sport package? I am aware the 2003-2004 sport package offers larger wheels and an aluminum-painted center stack, but I'm not sure about the suspension.

I know in 2005 they updated the sport package, adding things like orange stitching on the steering wheel and finally adding a stiffer suspension to complement the 19" Rays, but I'm not sure about the 2003 and 2004 models: I always thought then they were like BMW's 3er coupes, where the sport-oriented suspension is the same on sport and non-sport coupes, and the sport package simply added goodies such as larger wheels and different trim.

TIA.

So same suspension for sport and non-sport on the early coupes? That's somewhat of a relief. I really need to get rid of my stock 17"s then lol.

The 2003 had a Performance Tire and Wheel Package included the 18" alloy wheels, Performance Tires (Michelin Pilot Sports) and a Limited Slip Differential and the titanium interior. There was no "Sports Package". The suspension is the same as the Premium Package independant multi-link front and rear.
