I'm interested in case something comes up. I wish Koni would put something together for the 370's... you'd think with how long they've been out there would be something by now...

In theory you can run up to a 10% difference between spring rates for a spring matched to a given dampener and be okay -- so... that means we just need to know the OEM spring rates. Then you can mix and match appropriately.

I just went and got a set of the Nismo springs/struts from another member. Should be getting them installed next week or two.

Yep, and Tokico says it will be 12-18 months before they have dampers for our car. Seems like the lead times are unnecessarily long. Look how fast Stillen develops sharp products. :stirthepot:

Glad what I found was of some help :tup:

Just got my OEM Nismo Tokico's installed -- ooh yeah, they are quite a bit stiffer :D

I wonder how they differ from the S-tune set...
