I received the KONI shocks... looks pretty much the same as the picture from 370Z forum.

Except I don't have the black plastic piece behind the springs and the upper mount... I am assuming those will have to come off the stock struct/shock assembly?

I will take some pictures when I get back home.

dont laugh at him he might get camera shy. what i would really like are pictures of the stock shock, koni shocks and their length measurements. i will most likely do this if i dont find any before i install mine. the only difference would be that i have a sedan.

Also came with some washers and nuts that I didn't include in the picture.

Nope haven't even touched it yet...

I have been meaning to give "bythabay" a call but haven't find the time yet.
If you want you can give him a call to have your coilovers installed.

Eric (weiboy) has his number

Or actually, Eric might be willing to assist you with a small fee...

I think bythabay runs the business inside his garage.
He has a yelp page, search for "Enthusiast Auto Care" or go to infiniticare.com
I heard he moved to Santa Clara recently so you will have to call him to find out where he is at now.
