shire350Z Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Needed some for bloody ages now (uprated gas boot struts that is) and havent bought them as iv been spending money elsewhere on the car but finally had enough off lookin an idiot trying to hold the boot up while puttin stuff in!! Got them from adam at Z1 thanks to wayne who organised the group buy! Come packages well and with all new nissan mounting brackets and the struts work a treat, werent that cheap at around £125 but just glad there on now and working well so thanks again to Adam and wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkie34 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Your welcome James. Still not got round to fitting mine,I am still balancing hatch on my head.They will get fitted this Friday,good to hear they work well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shire350Z Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 just make sure you'v got someone holding the boot up as high as possible or i proped mine with some timber because when you loosen the two 10mm bolts off on the bodywork theres alot of weight and will drop or twist easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nixy Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I've only got the lip spoiler on mine but still ocassionally it doesn't stay up and always needs two presses of the bloody button before it opens as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmarky Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 This must be the new 'in' mod as im in need of some also. Im wondering if they are strong enough to hold my boot up with the huge spoiler attached Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matth76 Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Boot struts are covered under Nissan warranty as it's a known common problem. Are you out of warranty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shire350Z Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 yes mate or i would have been havin some on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB84 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I also got mine through the latest group buy and I fitted them (along with some help) on Saturday. Pretty straight forward to change and make a real difference to getting things in and out of the car!! Great little modification and even though they aren't exactly 'cheap' they are a lot better value than Nissan's OEM struts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
