15+ Nismo - Swift vs H&R
 
Hey everyone. I've tried searching through most relative threads regarding both these springs, but I'm having trouble specifically finding 15+ Nismos with either Swift Spec R springs or H&R's on the OEM Rays wheels.
More so examples with H&R's.

Most pictures I've found are either pre '15 or non-Nismo.

I plan to run 20mm Project Kics wheel spacers all around. My biggest concern is the Swift springs in certain pics seem to leave a significant gap.

I eventually plan to swap the wheels and go for a set of coilovers.
In the meantime from all the reviews it seems like Swift is the way to go but at the same time I don't want to spend money on springs to not see a visual difference either.

Any pics/input would be appreciated.

I have Swifts and run 15mm spacers all around. I cut the rear plastic trim, the front there is some rubbing but nothing to worry about. I wold like to do 20mm spacers in the rear and maybe 18 in the front.

Unfortunately I haven't figured out how to attach a pic from my phone and my girl is at the shop.

Take off the nismo fender "flares"

they actually reduce clearance since they clip inward. they look stupid anyways

also the rears are already rolled from the factory iirc. My body shop took mine off and found that they were already rolled.

Would love to see a pic whenever u can. I've read the swift springs ride softer versus what one would assume based off of its spring rate. Is it any different on the Nismo struts, or is it just as good?

Good to know!

Do you have any pics of your car?

Anyone with H&R's on a Nismo?

My other Z was with Tein (wanted to be different), the Swift are a little stiffer but not bad at all. She rides good and confident. I have some Hotchkins sway bars to go on still.

Yes take the "flares off," the more people that do the more people will want them since it would be different.
