my noise is from the rear right also, and it is NOT the oem TSB issue, because I've heard that noise before many times on other peoples' cars distinctly

Also try a bit of WD40 where the spring perch touchs the spring. Any metal to metal contact is going to make noise.

The problem I am having with the dynamat on the upper mounts, is that the bolts won't stay tight. I will tighten them but then the dynamat will compress when heated and the bolts come loose again. grrrr.

I will check at Stance tomorrow with the cable adjuster. I also heard of a new EDFC type controller in the works. We'll See!

I called them up, and they said they were in the works of a EDFC like unit and they are working up the prototype..

They also said in the mean time that you could drill a 6mm hole in the rear plastic strut bar and be able to adjust the rears with a allen wrench. im not sure how easy that would be though. But the Greddy has a similar setup for their adjustable cable..

See my thread here. I think I may have the answer for the noise problems.

Nice find! Anyone know if there is an aftermarket replacement for this or something similar? Does Nismo have one?

It doesn't look like we can easily access the "REAR ADJUSTER DIAL" from the top.

As mentioned that would require drilling thru the plastic outer-cover and the metal rear brace. (see pic below)



Anyone has a better idea?
Or should we always dismount the rear suspension to get to the "REAR ADJUSTER DIAL"

I can remove the rear coilover in under 15 minutes to adjust the dampening... The only other way is to drill into the plastic cover up top and adjust with a long allen wrench.

If any of the sponsors/vendors would like some business, PM me some pricing on the Stance coilover kit. After lurking in this thread I'm very intrigued to say the least
