you know the old adage, hard work makes you stronger, maybe you should take that nismo offroad and give those shocks a workout.

seriously though, i do go offroad and havent' had any issues, but then i'm only at 6k so....

I know it's been a while since this thread began, but I also had the stock Nismo Bilsteins fail after 45,000 miles. After visting my local dealer, I decided to support Greg and Jen at PRG. Nissan wanted $330+ to buy/install TWO shocks! For a little more than $100 additional, I'm getting 5125s, PRG's 2.5 coil spacer lift and adjustable rear shackles. Now I anxiously wait for the UPS guy to deliver my goodies.
