Yeah, sorry dude, I had a kid screaming and I'm dog tired. Everything I've ever read says there just aren't enough X's out there to warrant the R&D cost of this kind of stuff. I'm glad I didn't realize that when I bought it or might not have....and I love my ride. If you hear differently let us know.

Only thing I can think of is to call around and ask if they have any plan's for the G35X or the FX. Really however, IMO how they view the vehicles and the people that own them, it's the product developement kiss of death. They believe that the owner's in general aren't concerned about performance and are thus far less likely to make a suspension purchase. Add in how the front shock assemblies are not the same as the RWD cars, the whole thing is DOA. As sometimes is the case, I WANT to be wrong.

Your best hope, is to contact http://www.propartsusa.net/products/...ni_rcenter.htm and talk to them about doing a wet kit conversion where they they gut your oem front shocks and install Koni internals. If they could somehow modify front Tokico D-spec shocks to have the same lower mounting scheme as your oem front shocks, that would be even better, cheaper too. Heck maybe they can do the same with some coilovers, really I don't know how far they can go. Pics of the oem X front shocks would really help them so they can see how they differ from front RWD shocks.
