Lowered the Nismo today. I was about to get better shots then it started raining really hard. Anyways I will get more pics soon sorry for the crappy pic. Just wanted to get a quick shot from my garage without me getting rained on.

I just want to see a picture of the rear without the wing!

 

What did you lower it on?

 

Looks like ****, no offense to the op.

 

Will get some soon bro

 

Went with Tanabe NF210s. I liked the drop on it and think its perfect.

 

none taken. everyone has an opinion

 

Looking good! Pick up a shortie antenna they are cheap and a huge improvement in appearence! What happened to the factory Nismo wing? Any plans to replace it with something else? She looks naked in the rear and I don't mean like a foxy brunette with her thongs on the floor either...

 

Thankyou sir I have a shortie antenna some where in my garage from my previous Z that I got off my old S2k. I just need to look for it and have been terribly lazy. It does improve the appearance I have to agree! I am replacing the wing with something else. I have no idea yet on what though. I have been shopping around.

 

Here's a link to a friend of mines Z! Sexy spoiler but I wouldn't even attempt it without a TT kit! Or I'd fear it being Rice.

I think it looks good without the wing but then again the HR Nismo is missing one of its trademark.

Looking good br0... you running spacers?

 

His car looks good! youre right about it you'd have to have a TT.. I can see that it could be rice. Do you think our Nismo wing is rice?

 

Yeah I have gotten use to it without the wing. It took me at least a week or two to get use to looking at it without it. It did look naked. But after seeing it for a while it grows on you and imo looks good! I will eventually get another wing though.

Yes I am running spacers..25mm all around. I will get better pics later and you can see it much better

 

bump! Update one picture! haha

 

Looks good, but just couldnt remove a quality set a springs that are matched well to everything on the car and install POS springs just to lower it.

 

Thanks the POS springs actually ride pretty well from the original. not too harsh. im happy with the ride..

 

Not out to be mean or anything, but,.......Why would you pay so much extra for a Nismo Z and for $200 install the wrong parts and ruin the core of the car? It's like buying a throughbreed horse and putting John Candy on it's back as a jockey. , so much for the speedy horse you paid big $$ for.

I think what terrasmark is trying to say is that no lowering spring exists that can work on the Nismo Z. Work as in having the right spring stiffness for the car's factory shocks, which they are designed to work with. I publish factory oem and aftermarket spring rates to help peole like you avoid making mistakes like this. http://g35driver.com/forums/brakes-s...w-updates.html The NF210 is about as worse a spring as you can get for the Nismo Z. Way too soft. Swift Spec-R could have been a better choice, but still too soft. Just because they will install and even if you think the car feel's great afterwards, still doesn't mean it is or was a good idea. Numbers are so far off it's not really a discussion. Again, not trying to be mean.



Nismo Z spring rates (2007-2008) ride height is the same as other Z models linear front, progressive rear (initial and final rates shown)
492/336-672

Tanabe NF210 Series 350Z progressive springs 1.2”/1.2”
Spring rates in LBS 314/353

Way too much spring rate differance.

Swift 350Z Spec-R progressive springs 1.2"/1"
Spring rates in LBS intial/final Front: 291/392 Rear: 280/448

^Still 100/224 lbs softer, but better then -178/-319 that you have now.

 

Wow I didn't realize the Nismo had that aggrressive of a spring set-up.

 

NISMO's look great without the rear wing. Nice car bud!
