350z swaybars

Are 350z swaybars different from our G35 sedans? And if they are will they improve handling and will they fit on our sedans.

The fitment is the same for our cars.
I'm using a 350 Evo rear bar on my car & love it.

Thats right, the bars are made to fit either 350Z or G35. I don't know if the 350Z has the "same" bar, but it will fit a G35 and a G35 bar will fit a 350Z.

just installed rear sway bars for 350z on my G35X. fits fine. makes the car handle like if it was lowered. no more lean , just make sure u use stiffest setting. it makes the G more tossable.

How much is it? Did you do it yourself? Does our G come with sway bars already and this is a replacement?

I want to improve my G's handling too. It's a bit leaning when you push it hard.

Since our car is AWD, don't you need sway bars in front and back?

The G35 comes with both front and rear sway bars stock. By going aftermarket you can reduce the factory built in understeer by going with a stiffer rear bar.

i did the rears my self, just jack up the car on to jackstands, you will have to unbolt the exhaust hangers for the muffler to lower it a lil to squeeze in the sway bar. make sure you dont break off the grounding strap on the muffler.
the whole job took me an 1 1/2 from start to finish.
out handled a 05 M3 today getting on and off exit ramp. heck i even passed him on the outside on a off ramp. his car would start to slide , but mine just pulls my through the turn with a lil power slide, i got a X and the 4 wheel drive does help too.

Wow...that's pretty good handling. Hmm...1.5 hours, don't know if I can handle that. Sorry but I am really no mechanic and never had any of my cars up on jack stands except to jack it up with the regular jack to swap tires. *Feel Ashame* ...but seems like something I should look into. Don't tell me you were going through that ramp on your stock 17 turanzas?????

Sorry if it sounds like a newbie and dumb question. When you put it up on jack stands, I am assuming this is what you do. Please correct me if I am wrong.

1) Put car in P and step on emergency brake or for M/T, in gear and emergency brake.

2) Use your hydralic or whatever thing to lift it. Then put the rears on jack stands (assuming each jack stand holds 2 tons).

3) Then put a brick or wood behind the front tires preventing it from rolling back.

Is that it? I want to know a bit more about working under the car one day but I don't want it to tumble down and end my life. . I've seen those roll up ramps and the jack stand tool kits. What is the safest way to get under the car?

make sure you have depp sockets, because regular ones wont go clear the screw the nut is attached to. 14mm & 12 mm is all you need ,

I assumed you were asking about size difference between 350Z & G35,
as per post #1 question.

I don't understand you're reference to the X???

There is no merit in changing G35 bars for OEM 350Z bars
Basically if you want to change sway bars, aftermarket is the only way to go.
The big benefit with aftermarket is adjustability.
OEM are not adjustable.

Caution, not all aftermarket bars are adjustable though (eg. Nismo).

Please restate your question if need more info.
