here's a thread about it
https://g35driver.com/forums/brakes-suspension/65190-g35-350z-aftermarket-coilover-springs-shocks-specs-w-updates.html

it pretty much says the HKS III non sports and the Tein SS are some of the more comfy ones.

A bunch of the dallas guys are on MDUs they are pretty good comfort wise. Contact waijai, they are around 700 for the set.

I just had bc installed and I think they ride smoother than the stock sport package suspension. Since they have damping you can adjust it to similar, softer, or even racing stiff

I hear that the HKS III non-sports are pretty good all around. Good dampening adjustments and comfy. I haven't ridden in too many other g's with different suspensions but I have the HKS III non-sports. The ride is great...

999 from a vender here, included rear ichiba camber and toe bolts. I also ended up getting the front ichiba arms locally. From the looks of it, the front doesn't have much adjustment on ++ I'm gonna align my car next week so we'll see... Oh, also got the rear damping extensions for a small fee....

They have a lot of great prices. I bought a set of Tanabe Pro 5 coils from them for less than $1200. Installed them today and love them. A lot smoother than Stance GR+ or BC.

The Pro 5 drop 1.5" F/R and have adjustable dampening and the Pro S-OC drop 2.75" F and 2 3/8 R but don't offer adjustable dampening. The S-OC are also about $300 cheaper.
