My G35X - Nismo A34's

Posted a few times on the site but finally wanted to show you guys my G. Thanks for all of the awesome info on the site!... I know I need a to drop it but haven't found the right kit. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Sorry for the blackberry pics i'll try and get some better ones when its lowered. I just picked it up on August 1st so I feel like I've been pretty busy on it.

thanks for the kind words fellas! NISMO kit is really a must now I know! I have to put that on hold for a while while I rectify the drop situation and some performance upgrades.

I got Z springs and Tokico Dspecs. It rides and feels great. Its only 1 inch but it looks good and you dont have to worry about wearing out tires fast. I think if you go any lower than an inch youll prob have to invest in a front camber kit which is not cheap.

You planning on springs or coilovers?

I'm probably just going with springs. Do you have an X? Did you need to change out the shocks with the Z springs or you just did it for ride quality?

looks really good, are NISMO rims forged or gravity cast? Like others said, it'll look way hotter with a drop.

No mines not an X. I didnt see you had one until now... Im not really sure about the X's. My shocks were all worn out thats why I changed them too.


I think if you have the factory sport suspension you go with unrevised Z springs cause they are made to work with that spring. And the non sport works with revised. But like I said on an X Im not sure what is what.

IMO if you got some mileage on the car you should do the whole package. Figure its all apart so save yourself doing the labor twice and getting 2 allignments. The only thing extra I did was the SPC rear arms...they were like 70 bucks and the rear will be adjustable and allignment wont be an issue for the rear.

There is a X suspension sticky in the suspension section I believe.

Yea the wheels are forged and IMO probably the best quality wheel for the price! Forged made by Rays 19x8.5 +35 offset... perfect!

I've been all over the X suspension sticky...
