Request for Nismo S-Tune Suspension owners
Hey guys,
Can someone with Nismo S-Tune Suspension installed measure each wheel from ground to wheel well at level ground? I need to know the exact height because I have minimal clearance for a drop.
I live in a street with some horrible speedbumps that i NEED to pass.
With the stock suspension on my 2003 Track I can just go over them in a straight line when I'm alone in the car but with a passenger I scrape the Y-pipe so I need to take them diagonally.
Thnx!

David, since you have the suspension, why not grab a tape measure and post the numbers the op is asking for, along with your tire sizes?

Tanabe GF210 Series 350Z progressive springs 1”/1.2”
Spring rates in LBS 336/375
Nismo S-tune shock and spring setup 350Z (twin tube, fixed height)
.6"/.6"
Spring rates 448/504
GF210's are too soft to run with S-tune shocks, Eibach sportlines would have been a better match (still a little too soft in the rear). I've tested a lot of setups with many different spring rates, just speaking from experience that's all.

Actual spec is 15mm as published in on page 18 of the Nismo catalog. 20mm has been passed around for some time now so I understand, but it's not correct.

Honestly, wasn't planning on getting new shocks and struts just yet. Was just gonna put the springs on, with my OEM suspension. However, a friend who was installing them for me, noticed that my rear shocks were pretty much done, so we gave me his Nismo suspension, since he didn't need it anyway. Who would say "no" to a set of Nismo shocks and struts that were free? lol
