shocks/struts for 07 G35S with HICAS 4WS

I am having a lot of difficulty locating struts/shocks for an 07 G35S with all wheel steering. I found one set of new OEM rear shocks from a dealer site online. $185/each seems steep, though.

No luck at all on the fronts. KYB says theirs don't work with 4WS. Monroe doesn't seem to have them either.

Any idea where else to look?

There shouldn't actually be a difference in the equipment for the RAS/4WAS system. All it does it add a motorized rack/pinion that attaches to the bottom of the spring bucket in the rear but it still uses the same spring bucket as all the other cars.

They probably don't have that option listed because they never "technically" tested it on a car that did have the option.

All that probably matters is that you get a kit that is for either RWD or AWD.

My 2006 coupe RAS uses the exact same rear springs/shocks as every other coupe.

Your 2007 sedan 4WAS should use the exact same rear springs/shocks as every other sport package sedan.

this is what I'd assume as well, but I did find it odd that infiniti had a different part number. From looking at the diagrams, they don't appear to be different hardware, as far as mounting goes. I guess I'll just order a kit and worst case scenario, they don't match up.
