don't forget I'm on 350z tein s techs if you go this low i would deff get 350z shocks struts cause they are shorter than our sedan shocks/struts and you deff don't want do bottom out

it is possible to get 3 inch drop just off springs. stock 350z springs on a g sedan is already a 1.5 inch drop. and another inch and a half from the springs

^Stock 350z springs on a g sedan is more like .8 to 1.0 inch. Maybe 1.5 on an AWD model.

Does anybody know how much of a drop it would be if I installed G coupe stock springs/struts on an 04 G sedan X? Will it lower like the OEM 350z suspension would?

coupe springs will only drop your .5'' and 350z springs will drop you 1''

The X sits .5" higher than a RWD and is heavier so Coupe springs will drop you between .75"-1".

hey snoop did you get an alignment right away? and if so how many miles have you put on the car with the springs and what is the condition of your front tires?
i didnt get an alignment because i wanted to have an excuse to tell my parents why im buying new tires already because i hate the nankings that i have, and now i already have a pair of pirellies waiting to go on but i need to know if an alignment is all i need or if i need to buy new a arms and rear camber kits so that i stop destroying the tires,

so the tl:dr version
what did you have to do to alighn the car and stop the destruction of the tires

^ you need a rear camber kit for sure if you drop over an inch. Alignment should be done 2 weeks or so after the drop. Front camber arms are usually not a must but are advised especially with a drop like snoop got.
