Hey hey new to forums
So to start off I'm new here and would like to say hello before asking for help so 👋 my question is do altima rear shock absorbers for our g35 I have some brand new ones for my altima but it already has new shocks. After looking the rear ends are pretty much the same suspension wise shocks seem the same length and made the same 🤷🏼*♂️ has anyone ever tried this? Wouldn't mind throwing em into the g35x

Welcome to the forum. I don't know if anyone has thought of using Altima shock/struts for the G, but should be easy enough to test fit to see if they work for fitment and geometry.
I would caution about mixing and matching different spring rates front to back. Some useful info here discussing differences with coupes, sedans, and Zs.

No they will not, Altima rear shocks have
Extended length 21.18
Compressed length 14.48
Stroke length 6.7
G35X rear shocks has
Extended length 22.12
Compressed length 14.8
Stroke length 7.32
You would almost certainly run into piston issues using the shorter ram altima shocks.
Altima front struts have
Extendex length 20.31
Compressed length 13.42
Stroke length 6.89
G35X front struts have
Extended length 14.92
Compressed length 11.06
Stroke length 3.86
They're so wildly different in the front there's no way it would work.

I know it's just cause I had them in my garage and figured if they fit why not but mine are still fine
