Nowhere in the article does it say stiffer rates equals less nvh.
Are we looking at the same dampers? The 2015+ Nismo has both a front and rear chassis damper, this is what I have been referring to. Not the shocks / strut (dampers) even though their rates have been increased over the standard 370. I hope this helps clarify.

You're right, we aren't talking about the same thing at all. However, what he quoted in that article IS what i was talking about in the first place. I should have said chassis dampeners, i was not referring to the struts.

Those dampeners do reduce NVH and they do smoothen the ride, I may be wrong on Nismo's coming with RE11's from the factory but i distinctly remember a friend telling me he regretted getting a 2014 because he found out 2015 nismos were shipping with RE11's. Again, my bad. I'm human and I make mistakes.

i'm guessing you guys are talking about chassis bracing. calling them dampers is universally confusing and inaccurate. The article is talking about high performance dampers, actual dampers for the suspension, not chassis bracing. So i still don't understand. Hopefully i'm alone in this confusion.

Again, Nissan calls them dampeners therefore we call them dampeners. I don't expect you to know this since you drive a G37, but if you looked around this forum enough you'd realize what these are and that the people who drive these cars know what they are and what they are for. So yes, i think in this thread...so far you are alone in being confused by this.

i wouldn't have known what you were talking about in either case as you stated dampers, directly after talking about springs and sway bars. I understand what it is you are talking about now.
