Front no - rear yes. I also recommend a new set of adjustable shocks as well. I am running Sportline Spring with Tockico D-Specs and loving it. It's great drop and makes the car look more aggressive.

I'm just hoping I can get my front toe back in spec once I put my sportlines on. I'm going with the rear camber kit for sure. My drop might not be quite as much since my sportlines came off of a G35. I'm wondering too if the sportlines for the g35 are the same as the sportlines for the Z? I know they advertise a bigger drop on the G35 but I wonder if they are the same springs but just drop more on the G because it's alittle heavier?

+1, research everything before buying.

But to answer your question, you'll need a camber kit for the rear for sure. Front won't be that bad. When I replaced my front tires, the wear on them was even

I've seen this OP asking so many questions w/o searching through this forum.
Gennosuke1, dont rush when you are buying parts especially suspension. I've made a good thread on it and i am sure you can find them. it is recent.

I just had to put front arms on mine as well with GF210's which drop a little less in the front and the same in the rear as the sportlines. I too am running Tokico HP and it is much better than stock and cheaper than the D-Spec if you don't need adjustability and no more bounce...
