Yeah thanks man we live in broward down in south florida which is why you probably have not seen us before. The rims are avarus wheels made by Savini which are 20x 8.5 in hypersilver custom drilled to fit the g35

I want to lower my G35x with 350Z Tein H-tech springs!

Are they going to fit on the G35x?
Any other better suggestion with similar ride height as the 350Z H-tech springs?

Here are some pics of my G35x with stock suspension.

The search function is your friend. Any aftermarket springs for coupe or sedan will fit. For the good drop and good ride comport go with H&R'S. Look for pics of my car or JMANN44544 and you'll see what the drop will look like.

Are you refering to H&R springs for RWD G35 sedan/coupe or for 350Z?

Thanks for your suggestion.

The H&R for the Sedan. Now where in the heck did you get the track wheels. Are they staggered and what tire size you running. I had 350z h-tech springs, I would suggest on getting the H&R because the will look more even.

The track wheels are staggered with 225/45/18 all-around.

I am actually looking for springs that will not lower the ride by too much since my dad will be driving the G35x too!
Therefore, the 350Z H-tech maybe better for my case.

Is it going to be a problem if I get the 350Z OEM springs? Will they be too soft for our heavy sedan?

I you go with the 350z oem, get a set of unrevised, and then get a rear set of revised shocks. But if you want to lower it about .5 get some coupe springs.

I am actually looking for a set of track wheels, kind of getting tired of the 20's

When I looked into getting the H&R springs for the sedan, they note no AWD. Does anyone know what the problem is with it? or is there a better set up for the same amount of money?

Alright, so after a long long time of researching and reading differently, I have come to the conclusion that I NEED a front camber kit.
I have an 04 X with Sedan H-techs. My last set of tires were toast in about 5k miles. They wore out on the very very inside. Basically only the inside inch of tread. The rear tires were completely fine.
I have had it aligned so many times. They told me the front is way out of spec and there is not much adjustment at all.
I ask only because all I read is people needing them for the rears and not the fronts. I dont need rears. Im thinking about putting coupe springs on.
I should be back in spec with coupe springs all around right?

i think any drop on an X will need front and rear camber kits. The drop is another .4" or .5" drop compared to a RWD sedan.

To get into perfect spec, you will pretty much need both kits on any car IMO.

The front suspension has NO camber adjustment stock. (on coupes/sedans/xsedans/350z, etc)
