The Tokicos are a vast improvement over the stock shocks.

i was gonna tell you to order 350z tokicos. they are slightly shorter and will slide in much easier.

The 350Z Tokicos (DSP-9s) are useful if you are lowering your car. The rod is about 1/2 inch shorter so the shock is under less constant compression with lowering springs.

Guys I could only afford the blue's. I was told they were good shocks for my lowered ride. I have so so much $ out on the car right now I am beside myself. Surely would of went with the dsp-9's if I had a few extra bucks.

So have I made a very poor choice with just getting the blues for the G instead if the Z since I am lowered. What would you do?

B I am going to get a spring compressor for this. Should make install a lot easer ya think?

Seems like you're having more problems than needed with your suspension. Hopefully by Christmas time or sooner you'll be set with a Coilover system instead like we've talked about.
