Not at all, I checked the car when I got home the second day after I bought the car and sure enough, the spacers had not been removed:( I took it back to the dealer and had them removed, definitely a different ride afterwards.

Ah! I can't believe that dealerships still don't remove those damn things.

On another note- just put the swift springs on all four corners. I have them and I live in downtown Chicago. We have shitty road surfaces and the biggest speed bumps I've ever seen, but I get around. Plus, what car doesn't look a little bit better lowered? :tup:

:icon18: thx guys. V, glad you are going with those springs all around. You won't be disappointed at all.
Chilblk, you are bold my friend. The speed bumps and roads in Chi-Town are pretty rough; you should convince forum member Cell as well :p The dealership had removed 3 spacers on my car during purchase and simply forgot about the last one. I found that out when the car was on the lift a few months later.

Cars are meant to be driven! A couple scrapes and battle scars are the only way to live! (I also daily drive on custom 20" rims with a 25 series :eek: it wont be long before I get my lips replaced! hahha)

LMAO, good stuff man, those lips must have gone through a LOT.

Just ordered the Swift springs! All I need to do now is order the front and rear camber arms.:driving:

:happydance: The Swift springs will blow your mind dude. I got the full camber set from THM Motorsport. Give a call to Nick he'll take care of you.:tup:

Here is the link:
SPC Camber Kit

Good choice! I just installed mine along with rear SPC camber arms + toe bolts. The slots for the toe bolts were actually really easy to elongate. No big deal with a tungsten cutting dremel attachment ($8).

Now that I've finished, I regret not ponying up for SPC front a-arms... Theres a ton of neg. camber in the front and the springs haven't even settled yet. I'll know for sure if I need the kit after my alignment next week :icon14:

You're making the right choice getting all the parts at one time!

I would not do it as the springs are totally different and it could upset the handling of the car. The Swifts are kinda like a progressive/linear and the Nismo is Linear. Way too harse.

But if the height is the issue you should get a spring mount spacer for the rear to lift it a little if the Swifts are too low in the rear.

Thank you TJ, I will keep this in mind. Where would I purchase this item if needed? I must admit, I am a little nervous about dropping the car; I hope it's not one of those situations that turn out to be a mistake. I do love the stance the Swift Springs gives the 370Z. I read one instance where one of the forum members had something hitting against the body of the car from doing the drop. I believe he was using coil overs and dropped the car at least 3".

I am hoping this is a very simple install and that I will not have any issues.

Don't be nervous about dropping the car, your front lip will thank you for it LOL. V, you'll just have to be more conscious of steep inclines and taking bumps at high speed. Other than that, you'll enjoy the pros against the cons... I know I do. I can count the number of times I scraped the bottom of the front lip and I can always replace it for cheap in a few months/years if I feel like there is a need for it. You won't have the same issue as the guy who dropped his car over 3"; that's a guarantee but you'll probably notice a need for spacers or fatter tires/rims once you drop it. There you have it, your next future mods before you even got your Swift :)

The Swift Springs have arrived! One thing at a time, next up...camber arms...I guess I should wait until I see if I really need them. I am the kind of person that likes things to be precisely at factory specs, not close to them. I guess this answers my question...get the front and rear camber arms.

Need? More like want, my wife thinks I am crazy to tweak out a new car, she also thinks it has me possessed!!:worship:

V.

:icon18::icon18: Mine did think the same as well until she saw the end result and she is very pleased with it. The main thing she has been able to hold me back up to now are black or gunmetal rims; I love the current stock rims so I will wait for to grow out of it before getting newer rims :tup:

If and when you go with the spacers, the H&R DRS will do the job.
