When springs compress they actually rotate, that rotational movement can cause a squeaking noise
Solution is thrust bearings or thrust washers. Swift sells them for about $25(enough for two corners)

Never heard of those but I will try them out on my next alignment. The noise does seem to be coming from the top of tophat I can clearly hear it behind me. I did buy them off a G37 owner that gave me the top hats off his car. From what im told the suspension from the G and Z are the same but read one thread somewhere and they said the top hats aren't compatible?
