Question on Q45 front suspension.

Wiki and even Infiniti Scottsdale site note that the McPherson design carried over to the M45 & Q45 2003. Has anyone looked into parts compatibility front only. Particularly springs and struts. Asking because there are a couple M45's parting out in my area.

Probably would work as that car was the tweener model they came out with that used a lot of the Y33 design. Still hella expensive parts, I worry about junk yard as I just had my 97's struts out and they looked pretty trashed with only 104k on them and second set of KYB's bleeding juice this time from the front. My rears were bleeding at 60k.

I'm mainly lookingn for something to get me through to spring. Plan on rehabbing entire suspension with new then. May go with S14 oem springs to get throught to that point. Not the best option I know.
