Exclamation need suspension help!

I have many questions. Any help will be greatly appreciated. So i have the awd g35x. Suspension is way too soft and sluggish. I don't want to drop because IMPULS cost too much and I only want a mild drop. What would be the best way to do this?
Changing the rear sway bar from one from the rwd model, gt-spec braces, or both?
Also, has anyone confirmed which gt-spec braces fit the X and which don't? Which will have the most significant change?
Will both, changing the sway bar and adding the gt-spec, cause the suspension to be too stiff?
Will this effect how the car drives in the snow?
Does it matter if I leave the front stock as-is and tighten up the rear?
Are there any downsides to spacers?

A lot of noobish questions, but hopefully you guys can help. Thanks .

I'll only help a little. From what I have seen it seems most X's that want a mild drop go with Eibachs. IMO you are biting off a lot at once. I would mod your suspension in baby steps, one at a time. As you progress you may not need to know the answers for some of the above, and maybe you would need to know answers to different questions.

Keep in mind braces will not affect suspension, just make your frame more rigid.

Choose which direction you want to go first, firm up the suspension, or stiffen up the frame, once you feel you have one where you want it then focus on the other if you still have the need.

Hope that helps!

Does anyone know for sure which gt-spec braces fit and which don't fit the X?

Have you looked at their site? They seem to note which ones won't fit an X. Like this one (and actually it's cause us X's have this braced up from the factory):

I am pretty sure the rest will fit, but look through them, any questions shoot them an email they will tell you for sure.
