Default who swaped suspension?

I am wondering what happened to your tire wear? and how stiff the ride is?

Also anyone here with 04.5+ that swaped the stock suspension, and i want to get ride of it, i am interested.


The resone i was asking, my friend has an 03 350z, but i dont want the unrevised suspension.

03 vs 04.5+, the 03 rides more firmly because of it's shocks even though the 04.5+ setup has 25% stiffer rear springs. The theory is to deliver better ride qualities more in tune with North American road condition's. Now I love the 03 setup's shock stiffness, but the never ending bounce after bounce thing just doesn't stop nawing at you. It's cold water on corner speeds with the pavement isn't smooth as glass too. Heck even Koni purposely made their shocks softer then the oem 03 shocks (they of course do have rebound adjustability).
