I have 12mm spacers on all 4 corners and 10mm lower ride height with plenty of room. The Nismo wheels are 10" wide front and 10.5" wide rear. I am unsure how wide the stock Performance wheels are, you would obviously want to match the tire width to the wheel width if you are looking for best...
275/40 will be too tall for the front, I have 275/35 and 285/35 on stock Nismo wheels. Its as close to square as I can get sine the wheels are different widths.
They must be slow. Trying to drum up some business, they get people to come in for an oil change and write up a list of things they need done and try to upsell. This ad is solely aimed at the Altima owner.
This gentlemen was gracious enough to film this demo video of the hood poppers in action..

Definitely do the doors, there is zero insulation in the doors, just the trim panel and then bare metal. I did my doors with jute as I didnt want anything permanent, made a nice difference in NVH decrease and made the stereo sound a bit better.
A 370Z rear diff will fit, the only thing that will have to be transferred over is the input yoke flange, that's assuming the splines on the pinion gear are the same. Not sure why you would want to tho as the 370Z comes with a viscous LSD, that's a marginal upgrade at best. You can find used...
I use the soft brush listed below to get in the barrels, it squashes down pretty flat to get between the rotor and wheel barrel, only part I cant get is where the caliper is. In the rear I can go all the way around no problem, also works great to get the wheel wells clean. One brush last me...
Used or new parts?
Used J&J has Z parts: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trkparms=folent:jandjautowrecking|folenttp:1&_trksid=p3542580.m47492.l71970&_ssn=jandjautowrecking
Also OK auto parts...
Yes, only the Nismo has these. Other manufacturers make them in an odd color like yellow or orange so its obvious that they don't belong there. On the Z they are black so most think they are a part of the suspension. When I was in the market for my Nismo every one I looked at ( including mine )...
I wonder how many Nismo Zs are riding around with those spacers in? The car drives and rides like absolute trash with those in as the front feels very disconnected to the rear. I bet some owners traded their Nismo in because they didn't like the ride or handling character because of the spacers...
I put these on my Nismo at 3K mikes, the car now has 8K miles and the fronts are at %80 left, the rears are at %20 left :p. On my little Veloster N I got 12K out of the original Pirelli then swapped to the V601 and got 20K out of those, am replacing them wit the same V601 again this spring and...
Going slightly positive on the scrub radius is not a big deal. Yes, you do feel it but there's so many variables involved like alignment setting, control arm bushing stiffness and the actual road surface is a big one. Basically you will get used to it over time.
So the Nismo has a 0 scrub radius with the OEM 19x10 +33, you could run a 10.5 +33 square and keep the 0 scrub radius and use the appropriate spacer in the rear to make it rotatable. If you want to run 19x11 square you will have to push the front wheel out a bit and have a slightly positive...
I have Silvers 2 way true rear coilovers on my Nismo. Suspension is very subjective. Basically if you like the stock ride then coilovers are not for you. Just get a set of lowering springs and call it a day. Coiloves are geared more for performance vs aesthetics. They are noisier, ride harder...
Not sure if you are referring to the same noise but axle clicking was a very common issue on the 350/370Z and will probably also be on the new Z as they get older.
You don't have to remove them if you don't want to, you can just unplug them but you will need to buy the resistor kit. Without the resistors you will definitely get a warning light for the airbag system. I removed mine cause they were just dead weight and for a cleaner look.
Here is the kit...
Yeah, they are literally over 4x more expensive than the OE pads so they better last 4x as long. I planning to do at least 1 day in my Nismo this year, my plan is to bring an extra set of OE pads with me, they are super easy to change.
