350z Springs Alignment ?- need some help out of the rough
The only specs you have real control over is the toe and MAYBE the camber to a very slight degree.
It also depends on what YOU want. Z specs are by nature a bit more agressive

Hi...
I had my X lowered last week with unrevised z springs. I called up a shop today to ask for the alignment price. They asked if my car has been lowered and I gave them the details. They said since it's lowered now, they can't do the alignment for me even if I bring the specs to them. They said I need to go back to factory. Reading from this thread, it's telling me otherwise. Can I just go to an alignment shop and give them the below specs and have them align it back to the stock g35x specs?

Also, do I need 2 wheel alignment or 4 wheel alignment?
Thanks !!!

Yes have them use the AWD spec. The might not be able to get dead on and make sure they give you a print out of what you did align to this way you can decide on whether or not to get a camber kit.
