Great to be back into a Z !

Shipping spacers may have only been added on the Nismos, the front dam is that close to the ground. As discussed on another thread, I think early journalists gave the RZ34 Nismos bad press for a harsh ride. But the spacers weren’t removed on their eval cars! Sure the ride is stiff, but not as bed as when the front spacers are left in. I can post a pic if you want to see what they look like.

Please do. Thanks.

I don't own a NISMO, but this shipping spacer thing has been an issue since the NISMO was introduced. Nissan isn't doing themselves any favors (for the press or consumers) by not getting this sorted. Press cars and your cars should be delivered in ready-to-drive condition. Period.

It's:

Embarrassing!

I went back to dealer yesterday to have shipping spacers removed. I believe it was the first time that the service advisor and mechanic ever heard about the spacers. I could definitely feel the difference in the front end when I left. I have a bad feeling that there's a bunch of nismo owners driving around with the spacers. Nissan should of made them a bright orange instead of black and fully informed dealers on removal before delivery. Thanks again to all the forum members, I'm grateful were able to help each other out.

Not the greatest pic, but I gave the 2 spacers I pulled out to the Service Manager. I needed them to know what they left in my front springs. The front of my Nismo dropped 1/2”+ (maybe 2mm) once it settled.
