Not to knock NISMO but
SPL Parts are better and cheaper.
Adjustable Rear Camber Arms for 370Z and G37 | SPL Parts
Adjustable Front Upper Camber / Caster Arms for 370Z and G37 | SPL Parts

Saw them last night while browsing, basically nismo just copied SPL.....and a few years too late at that.

Yup, those designs look suspiciously like SPL

No need to pay an extra hundred bucks for the nismo logo

They are SPL parts with a different color and a higher price. The rear camber arms are the new style billet SPL's. $438.00 vs $379.00.

The front arms are real close. Wonder if SPL are up-dating their products?

I did not see these at ZDayZ. Hmmmmm

That big red piece is a sub-frame bushing. Just like the SPL piece.

yeah they were on the side of one of the Nismo booth tables. talking with the lady at the booth she said it was a new partnership with SPL eclusive NISMO color available at your dealership. I don't remember discussing price with them when i took the pics. I figured it'd be a little more than the SPL.

Buy lunch for the whole shop.

OptionZero 09-03-2018 10:23 PM

I've done that before. I mean, not a full catered lunch

but donuts or bagels everytime my car's in for anything more than a day

I'd rather have the guys touching my car be in a good mood, and what's $12

I've done the same. :D

Me purchase a slab for beer o'clock. Bagels and donuts are a uniquely North American thing

Yeah I spotted these parts on Z1, saw the SPL resemblance and had wondered myself. Thanks for the info.

I'm not sure if I like this though. The parts do look cool but it feels like nismo is just being lazy and cashing in on other peoples work. They should have developed this stuff a long time ago imo.
