I am not familiar enough with 370's, but I know that some cars do not run well with stock shocks and lower springs. The shocks are outside their designed working height. With the Audi I owned, the shocks usually blew w/in 10K miles. It was a VERY common failure. But I have no (and I mean ZERO) experience with this on Nissans. Just food for thought.
