Nismo front/rear damper
About a week ago, while browsing various sites, i cam across a site selling the nismo 350z front and rear dampers. I was thrilled to see a site selling them because i had never seen any other site offering those parts. Now here is the dilemma...in my excitement i forgot to bookmark the website. For a week now i have not been able to find the site. Has anyone else seen these parts on any other website or know where they can be picked up? I believe for both front and rear it was 400. Thanks in advance.

I doubt they'd be that cheap... I got mine used for 650.00.
|
maybe it was just for the front....in any case i cant find the site. Its been eating me up inside for a week :/

I know Z1Auto might have them, but nowhere near 400 for both like you said. http://z1auto.com/prodmore.asp?model...ng&prodid=2902

Keep in mind that you need to get the bracket's that go with the dampners... Adam at Z1auto includes them but if you get it from a dealer you'll have to ask for the brackets as they don't come as a kit.

sounds good, thanks for the incite guys.

As I undertand it, these were made to dampen vibrations that come off the stiffer suspension and body (welds) on the NIZMO. I don't think they are of much benefit on *regular* Zs. Someone here can correct me if I'm off base on this.

I think I found the answer:
Even if the car body is reinforced and made more rigid, road surface input through the tires and load shifts during cornering make the entire body act like a spring, causing the occurrence of micro vibrations. The performance damper acts to control the transmission of micro vibrations to the body. During circuit driving, micro vibrations from the car body are transmitted through the steering system to the driver, resulting too often in unnecessary steering corrections. With the performance damper installed, however these micro vibrations are eliminated and excessive steering wheel handling is no longer needed, resulting in more stable handling. Also, in normal driving, the micro vibrations are eliminated, as well providing a much more enjoyable and comfortable ride. http://www.nismo.co.jp/en/products/c...rformance.html |
anyone have the part number on the end brackets?
|
Doubt it as the people that have a set usually bought them used and came as one unit. Did you try Courtesy parts?
|
No luck at courtesy... :-(
|
No luck at mynismo or nismoshop
|
Found it: brackets
544A6 1A300 fitting mount 1 544A7 1A300 fitting mount 2 |
