hell yes you will need camber kits a new shocks

here is what i found for the G35 coupe springs, i could not find an info on the 350z springs.



Year
03-06

Spring Rate
Front 5.5kg/mm Rear 6.3kg/mm

Lowering Data
Front 1.7in Rear 1.3in

Part Number
TDF073

MSRP
$220.00


Look into SPL v2 front camber kit and SPC rear camber kit/toe bolt
and Tokico D Spec Adjustable Shocks Set for the G35 Coupe

i bought my camber kits here, great service. they are on my350z if you want to PM them on there.

Replacing brake pads on Brembo's is VEEEEERY easy. I had them on my STI. If you need help let me know.

For pads I always used Hawk HPS because they had less brake dust than OEM.

I'm pretty sure you can get them much cheaper from any vendor here on the forum.

The only thing I buy from Pepboys are tools. Never bought any actuall car parts. Contact M-Motorsports, he's in TX and should be able to get you some pads pretty quick. I would contact him today though if you want them by Friday. There's probably some other vendors in TX, but I'm not aware of them.
