I am planning on test driving a Nismo sometime next week, or next weekend. Thank God Nissan still has that 0% interest until the end of April. I was thinking about possibly purchasing the Nismo in June or July, but it might be this month......hehehehe |

After the 3 spacers (only in the front per side) were removed the front height went down by about .5 inch. Not sure if the whole car is lower than the regular 370Z. I guess it depends on what tire/wheel package is installed. It was love at first sight with my Nismo and it just happened that Nissan is offering the 0% APR. Saw it Sunday (March 25th) during a drive by and took it home the next day!

Thanks and I appreciate it. From what I gathered it is only the front & each side could have possibly one to three spacers. I really want to test drive one right now....lol

Got those too. traded an 09 base 370z w/ sport package for the nismo and first thing i noticed was the suspension being alot stiffer. thought it was normal being more sportier.

After reading this post I went out to my garage and looked to see if my car had them. To my amazement it did! I jacked the car up and removed them in 5 seconds. It brought my front end down 3/8". I bought the car new in 2009 and it's always serviced at the Nissan dealership. I can't believe the dealers not aware of this. Looks like I'll be calling them tomorrow. http://www.the370z.com/images/icons/icon8.gif

I've just stumbled upon this thread, having taken delivery of my new Nismo on Friday. Much to my relief, I found no spacers on either side.
Perhaps Nissan has gotten the word out to their dealerships? Although my dealer has been pretty good with service. I also have a 2011 Maxima, and they've installed some aftermarket springs/wheels quite competently. |

Put on about 1000 miles before reading this post. They were still on mine too. Dealer felt so bad he gave me vouchers for 3 free oil changes and a tank of gas.

Lol, unbelievable that people had these things on for so many miles and imagine how many test Nismos got bad reviews for suspension and ride quality because the damn spacers.
