These are just the oem hatch struts
I took off my car the day I got them
... So these are just new take off oem Nissan ones
For the hatch.

I bought the Z1 hatch struts for my Z
And when I went to sell it intended on
Taking them off and putting the oem back on.

Only thing to be careful with is once
The Z1 hatch struts are on - that's it
You cannot remove them.

So when I sold the car- the Z1 pieces
Went with.

I did manage to salvage the Z1 hood struts.

I Was hoping to find someone in need
Here needing or wanting a replacement
Set for their hatch for less than Nissan charges.
Z1 also sells these oem ones at a premium of $307 as well
Just as an FYI.

Side note-
I did like the Z1 hatch struts... but
I bought the heavy duty ones.
Was a pain to open sometimes.
But they say good for heavy wings.
Just remember once Z1 versions are installed
That's it they stay with the car.

Oem hatch struts are easily replaceable.
Only caveat against Z1. They should definitely
State that when buying... imho.

Thanks Zbrah.!
