I think it may have settled slightly after driving. I also replaced the stock nismo sways with Whitelines, front and rear (these are set full stiff). My first impressions: The cornering feels dramatically better than stock, zero roll... Also I think ride quality is actually improved, the chassis feels more settled over stutter bumps and re-balances instantly after going through big dips and ridges. Certainly a more confident feel going into and accelerating out of corners. No rubbing issues until I filled up the fuel tank and had a friend of mine in the passenger seat (he's around 300 lbs and I'm about 180). I drove quickly over some railroad tracks with this added weight and one of the tires scuffed the fender liner slightly. Because of this, I may dial the ride height up a little, or just ban heavier people from riding with me.

be careful being this low...im this low, and if you hit a bump hard enough since our nismo's have a different bumper, the wheel will actually hit the bumper. enough hits and the bumper starts to indent. after a while, the indents will start to crack the paint and plastic bumper. mine are already indented, hence why i've raised it a bit. ive personally seen a nismo with the paint completely cracked already



itll start to dent in the area of the red circle. keep an eye out!
