Default 2005's have the dreaded front end problems?

Did Nissan fix that crap or is it still a problem on these cars?
Thought I'd wait to find out the fix before I purchased one.
Thanks!

You'll need to wait until 2005 owners have 10K miles on their cars for the answer to that one.

We have some 05's on the lot... we have one that we are using as a demo... We will see soon...

As rumored though... the Upper A-Arms do not look like they have been changed at all...

BUT! The suspension is changed in some way that when you put the NISMO S-Tune suspension on it the ride is stiffer, but the ride HEIGHT stays the same...

does that mean that the nismo s-tune suspension could be a potential fix to the problem? or is the problem just fixed in general?

(sorry i dont know much about cars, but i really want a 350z)
