You should be good with H-Techs.

I'd rather sell the G then cut the springs, im not looking for an aggressive drop but dont wanna fork over the extra cash for a camber kit if there is a set of after market springs such as 350 H techs or S techs that do not require it.

I don't see what the point of lowering your car is if you're not going to lower it enough to where camber kits are required...

Some ppl like me don't care to have the car dumped (went through that phase with my Hondas and coilovers, etc.). I also am also going for a small drop with 350Z springs (0.5 inch drop). Anything more than that I'd get a camber kit.

well If I drop anything over .7 I wont be able to get into my driveway at home without wood blocks, so its not really an option for me because of that, unless I want to repave my driveway.

None. Get coilovers and front and rear cambers or leave it stock.

Since we're on topic, I heard that getting aftermarket springs wear out OEM suspension parts a lot quicker. Which parts are most in danger of getting affected and what could I do to prevent that? I've been looking to put H&R Springs on my 05 Sedan. Thanks.
