Correct me if I'm wrong, but I could see them on when I test drove it. I had to bring it back the next day to have them removed and I could physically see the front end was lower and I couldn't see them behind the wheel. They couldnt remove them the first night because I got the car at 9pm and they didnt have anyone to take them off.

After they were removed I could tell the car had a smoother ride compared to the first night. Is it possible there is something there that I missed?

My coworker is going to let me drive his Z (non nismo) on the same section this week to see the difference.

I had to physically turn the wheel both ditections and found them hiding behind the springs against the fender well. They took four off the day I took custody (2from each side), but there were actually 3 on each side. Let us know what the outcome is please. Hope this helps. FYI, my friend still had the spacers on his 2007 350 NISMO. He had no clue.

Take a look at my springs. I don't think there is a 3rd one hiding.

Yes, I saw them in the sticky. Btw, the first pic is of the front right spring from behind and the other is the front left taken from the front.
