I was wondering the same thing.....if anything Nismo's need to be lower. But i concluded that any changes to the suspension in any way would ruin the awesome handleing that Nismo so skillfully build into the car. So she will have to go fast, handle awesome but just doin it a tad higher off the ground then i would like

I wonder how the Nismo Z's would look like without the spoiler? Personally, I like how the Z's look without any spoiler whatsoever. Makes it look clean and free flowing. The spoiler on the Nismo Z isn't bad at all, but sometimes it makes it look like a shopping cart.

Be careful or you'll mess up the ride/handling balance for a slight look improvement. Are there even springs out for the Nismo Z?

I've heard the same. That's why I've been debating on lowering mine. I would like to know if there are springs for the Nismo Z as well!

I say keep it stock, if you wanted your own set up might as well got a baseline z. I think that the set up on the NISMO is on the spot sweet.
