350z suspension on an X

Hey guys, I want to put a full z suspension on my 2005 g35x but I heard that some parts don't fit. I searched for quite sometimes but couldn't find a clear answer. Is putting a full z suspension on an 05 g35x sedan possible? Thanks

You can use the springs and I think the rear shocks but not the front struts from what I have read

This is correct. Front springs, rear springs and rear shocks are interchangeable. Also, remember that any springs you put on will lower you ~.5" more than it would on a RWD.

Do you think I will just be better off with full G coupe springs?

It depends on how low you want to go. Coupe springs will put you at approx. the same height as Z springs would on a RWD.

should just consider springs for the car instead, don't have to worry about fitment issues, and they'll run you about nearly the same price. or save up and grab coilovers if you want to go lower

I heard that if you put z springs or coupe springs on a g35. you do not need a camber

Not what I've been told by some performance shops and other G drivers.... I guess we'll see cause I just bought 350z lowering springs and cambers. Maybe becuase they are "lowering" springs and not oem is the reason.....

The front struts are different but everything else will fit, I have the z springs up front with g springs in the back with z shocks
