Well, here's a link to a lengthy review I did a while ago on my lowered sedan: https://g35driver.com/forums/reviews/35796-review-tein-basics-350evo-arms-spc-camber-kit.html

This should answer all of your questions.
I appreciate your input, but this answers the question about one option; not all. I am sure other persons with the same kit may have a different opinion and others with springs and shocks will think their setup is the best. I am trying to get a thread so you only have to look one place for everything instead of spending hours searching long threads for two or three things. I am looking for input from people with stock shocks and aftermarket, linear and progressive springs and people with coil overs. This is for anyone thinking about lowering their car so they can see pics before they jump in and buy something they regret. Links are appreciated.

Ttrank, do you have a camber kit? If not are you within spec? How do you like the ride?

Seems like people with the Pro Kits are a hit or miss with needing a camber kits since many say they got it barely within the specs, while there are others that say they need a camber kit. Dang I just got mine too and wanted to avoid having to get a camber kit. I have yet to install them.

Installed, no. In my garage, yes.

I am just out of oem spec for camber right now but I'm installing an SPC rear kit this week.

Here are pics of my 2006 G35 Sedan lowered with 350z springs front and coupe springs rear. Wanting to put on either OEM 19" coupe wheels or aftermarket. Next I am going to install Stillen sways and GTSpec Bars.

I had my G on 350z revised springs and shocks for awhile now. The other week I put in stock springs for ****s and HATED it. The ride is MUCH better lowered. Feels very sporty. I cant wait ti'll they come out w/ coil overs for the X

no biggy camber kits. the SPC rear camber kit cost about 150 shipped and is very easy to instal
