After much searching and consulting with Stillen and others, it seems there are huge limitations of suspension mods for AWD G35.- Cannot be lowered because of front end geometry problems- Most aftermarket shocks not for AWD- Sway bar kits are RWD only- Wheels must be same width (can upgrade to 19")- Even aftermarket brake kits and pads are RWD onlyMy last hope is to source NISMO or R-Spec parts out of Japan. What am I missing here?

okay so i actually went to the seach tab and looked under suspension and this thread popped up which is great because it totally relates to my 06 g35x...so you guys cant say i dont search lol....so since the suspension on my car is stock, does that mean i cant lower it? keep in mind i have 20's on mine...everyone tells me that suspension is crucial..so i decided to do some research. WOW! the "X" has so many restrictions that it sucks sometimes...

just to clarify, can it be lowered what so ever or no...or can the suspension be upgraded for that matter as well..thx

Here is a picture of a lowered 2007 g35X. He used H&R. Sure the 20" wheel helps on the look also.

If it works on 07 it should work on the older models also.
