Hmm did you mean 350z springs?
With your factory G shocks I do not believe you will see a noticeable change as far as rebound and compression. You should just call nissan's parts dept and ask them for spring rates.
You need a coilover kit with camber adjustment for neg or pos camber.....

Spring rates are higher with the 350Z springs but not enough for you to notice and drop wouldn't be more than .25" at the very most....why bother?

This is what I pulled from a sticky:

Spring rate depends whether your Z springs are the revised version. And Z springs are supposed to lower 0.5 inch. There's another thread here with pics of a G with Z springs. It's fairly new so you shouldn't have trouble finding it.

Any spring or coil over that has “stiffer then oem springs by” does not factor in the higher rear spring rates of 2005 coupes with oem 19’s or 04.5+ oem 350Z’s
