Bruised tailbone :(
 
I've recently went to a physician for some pain around my tailbone, she noted that it was from extensive hard pats from the car. She said it was from me falling a lot ir something until she looked out her window and pointed at the car. I didn't want to believe it, but it did make sense. And yes, I took off the spacers. I took her around for a rode to see if it could be the source. When we got back she said to not drive it for awhile. :( anyone with this? Its so awkward sitting and walking, grr it hurts lol. Sleeping is also weird.

Driving in a Z with Nismo suspension bruised your tailbone?!? Really? :confused:

I agree it was prety stiff at first, but it softened up within a few hundred miles.

Ouch!

that's one of the reasons i'm selling my Z... Can't stand the ride anymore. But honestly I should have known it would be this way.

yea i really dont understand all the complaints about the Z's ride...coming from my 2000 hyundai elantra, the ride is like that of a maybach

1) your story is bogus
2) no doctor would ever go for a ride with you in the middle of their clinic
3) you should stop taking it up the butt

On a more serious note: Have you tried playing with the lumbar support? Might make things more comfortable for you.

Alternatively, see if you can pick up some progressive springs -- those are much softer in low speed driving and only get firmer under heavy load.

OEM Nismos are not progressive -- thus same firmness at all speeds.

yea seriously. :iagree:

dude the suspension on the car, even nismo, is not that stiff. its stiff for stock suspension, but there's plenty of people with aftermarket springs and coilovers without a bruised tailbone.

The only way you could bruise your tailbone in a NISMO is if you replaced the seats with bricks.

Jeffblue 03-25-2011 04:02 PM

bruises are usually caused by blunt trauma. unless you're pulling a Dukes of Hazard with your Z, you're not going to get a bruised tailbone.

Not that I know of. But you can easily transfer them to a computer and upload from there. :)
