How much different with sport and nismo suspension

I haven't heard of anyone running the S-tune suspension on their car yet on the forum. Myself and a few others on here are running the OEM Nismo suspension though.

The S-Tune suspension kit is standard on any Nismo 370z. Theses are the pieces i replaced on my Nismo as per the Part Numbers stamped on y original pieces.

i have a 2012 factory Nismo, the factory rear shocks/struts were terrible. super stiff and very bouncy. i ended up replacing the factory Nismo rear struts with the 2013 factory sport shocks/ struts. what a difference that made. handles like i want it to and rides way better.

I just bought a full set of low mileage 2019 OEM Nismo struts /shocks and springs for my non sport 2010 roadster. Are the newer Nismo struts and springs different than the older Nismo suspension pieces? Any more feedback from those of you who did the swap?

I answered you in the other thread. The newer Nismo bits are not as stiff as the older bits. The dampening and spring rate is softer.

I installed newer Nismo springs and struts/shocks. The front is higher by 1/4" but the rear is like a 4x4..over an inch higher. Springs from nismo are longer. Am I missing something??

Question

Do you have the rear springs sitting in the spring buckets correctly?
