Default Nismo springs

The NISMO O.E. springs & shocks are different from NISMO S Tune .Several people have reported issues off no drop or slight increase in ride height. With the O.E. setup.Please see attachments for a comparison off stock vs. NISMO S Tune springs and swaybars. The info for stock spring rate is from Eibach where it is compared to their Pro Kit.
