I ran the complete nismo s tune suspension for over 2 yrs before I finally upgraded to the BC coils just recently. Excellent choice for a suspension, 1.4" drop, ride is firm but comfortable and handling is superb. I had the oem revised z suspension before the nismo and the two are night and day, you won't be disappointed.

I don't know how well the springs will work with OEM shocks as the spring rates are 450f/500r for the nismo. Probably not going to be a good combo.

^ WHS.


If you can get the entire suspension for a good price it would be a nice option. Assuming the shocks don't have more than ~30k miles on it.

I'd avoid pairing just the Nismo springs with OEM shocks - the OEM's would get killed in short time due to the spring's significantly higher spring rates.

Nope, not a good deal. One shock isn't a nismo which is going to completely throw off the handling characteristics of this setup. So based on that $400 is too much because you will only be able to use the springs, which is not a good match for oem shocks, period. I just sold my 30k mile nismo suspension, complete with top hats and all for $400. I would look for something else if I were you, just my .02.
