I just bought my 370Z Nismo on 21 Jan 2013. I love it. hey thanks for the heads up on those stupid spacers. I knew the roads were a little bumpy here, but not that bumpy. Cranked my wheels, left and right right, and there they were, just like in your photo.. Thanks a ton!! Not to mention the 50psi cold tire pressure I had as well.

Uff, thanks!
 
Thanks man for the warning. I took my new Nismo out of the dealer yesterday and found it very stiff, not like the test drive. I went back today and ask them to take those things out. Now the car runs smooth. THANKS!!!

Giving this a Bump for our NEW Nismo owners to look into IF they're experiencing from a stiff suspension.

Imagine the lawsuit that could stem from this if it tied to an accident. Not sure that it would but just shows you how irresponsible some of these Mechanics are. $80-90 an hour for these guys...comedy!


No one has posted yet how they took them off.

Shipping blocks were still in
 
Just got my 2015 Nismo home and checked for the shipping blocks in the front springs and just like many have posted they were still installed. I've removed them but I plan to alert the dealership so they can get educated. Thanks to this forum I knew what to look for. Thanks guys!

Literally just jack the car to remove some load from the spring, then pull them put by hand.
