yea, the rear isn't going to go on from my perspective. My son had football practice tonight and I haven't stopped once today, it's 9pm and I'm just now finally sitting down at home to get some 'me time'. Tomorrow will be the same way so no chance of playing with the install right now. I have pictures of the bars, the numbers on them, etc. off to Kyle at Tirerack who ordered them for me to follow up with H&R to see what's happening. The original H&R part number for the front and rear bars were 70050 and 71050 respectively. Both bars have the numbers 33237 printed on them and that's the only numbers on them. I've tried searching the number on H&R's site with no luck. Maybe it's an internal number, not sure.

Just decided to play around a little more on H&R's site and noticed the 03-up 350Z has the same part number sway bar. So far, big FAIL for H&R.

well, here's my response thus far from my tirerack representative:

They have confirmed that these part numbers(33237) are both correct for front/rear of the sedan. I would make the attempt for install. Give me a call if you want to discuss the details. Let me know if you run into any further issues.
But the problem is, H&R is failing to see that there's a difference in the 07/08 sedan vs. the prev. g35 sedan/coupe/350z. Of course the part numbers going to 'show' correct because right on their site, it's showing the same part number for 03-up G35 and 350z. And I told him this. To appease him, I'm going to pull front, compare with pictures and then attempt to install the H&R front and see how it goes. If it doesn't fit, I'll show with pictures. If it does fit, then I'll move to the rear and do the same.

I would've already done this except I've been crazy busy and my 6 year old son had his first football practice last night and I was out with him until 7:30. Tonight's going to be the same way so no chance of doing it tonight. Tomorrow night is the plan.

Why would you want to waste your time proving to them they made a mistake? I'd just ask for the refund based on the parts not fitting.

If they say no, get them to agree to having your local Infiniti dealer do the install and that they pick up the tab if it does not fit.

^+1 why waste your time and energy to help them fix their problem and help em make more money w/o taking their time to the R&D, however if they are right and it does fit then tahts another stiry, though i doubt that the older body mountings would be the same.

just a couple of pics of the H&R offerings vs. the stockers. Pretty much self-explanatory.

I think the least they should do is give you a free set for your time!
