Default The Cure for Droopage!!!!

Tired of your hatch slamming down on your head during cold weather? Or perhaps you've installed a new rear spoiler on your car and the hatch no longer stays upright? We've got just the solution!

The struts themselves have gloss black bodies with a chrome-plated Stainless Steel Piston and nylon end fittings. They will never rust! Plus we include brand new genuine Nissan fitting hardware.



Available for $163.50 shipped anywhere in the 48 states. Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Canada and points abroad contact us for shipping quotes (we can ship them USPS, they are not big)

Orders can be placed via credit card or paypal here:

http://www.z1auto.com/prodmore.asp?m...or&prodid=2976

Or just stop down or give us a call!

thanks guys!!

These struts are the same as I've sold on the site for the past year, except that these are stainless steel instead of enamel-coated steel, so they won't succumb to corrosion, scratching, or chipping.

The struts are 40% stronger than OEM and can EASILY accommodate any aftermarket spoiler. The pictures above are the struts installed on my car which has a heavy fiberglass Nismo V1 spoiler installed. Even with the spoiler, the struts can still support an extra 20 lbs, so some dynamat or a/v equipment in addition won't be a problem.

Installation is extremely simple also. Simply unbolt the old brackets, screw the new ones in and snap the struts into place.

They're the same thing. I've decided not sell my newest stainless struts directly on the forum, so Z1 sells them for me.


In other words, have another beer, and buy them from Z1

I think he's saying the opposite ... they're stainless steel so they won't corrode ... edit: nvrmd.

You can drive your car through salt water and they won't corrode.
