Hey guys is it ok to completely remove the rear spring mount? The rubber cone that everyone cuts in half? I know it would slam it but my front is slammed and I just wanna take them out. Will that be ok? Looks like it will be fine

You should be fine, at least for a while. I run Sportlines on my stock struts (and your NISMO ones should be even beefier) and they are fine. I don't expect them to last forever, but I would estimate 30,000 miles at least. I mean struts don't last forever even on stock springs.. which people seem to forget.

Tein S-Tech Springs/TC Kline DA Koni's (Front are ride height adj by ~.5")....lowered ~1.2" in front and ~.7 in the rear....fenders haven't been touched. Autox/Track toy so alignment is fairly aggressive, etc. Going to swap out to either 10k/8k or 12k/10k Swift springs over the winter.

Stogey420....those NF210's look great. Is that after it had settled and everything? I had in my mind that the NF's would be a little lower than that but I really like where yours is sitting.
