Hi,I have a 96 I30 with 255k on it. The engine still runs great. Transmission is a bit jerky when cold but is smooth when car is hot. The problem is that I can feel every bump on the road. What should I change Struts or shocks. I went to Scottsdale infiniti web site and they don't list shocks as OEM parts? Where can I find shocks. What parts I need to change both front struts and all 4 shocks and how much it will approximatley cost.Regards,Wasim.

Call them. Too many parts to put all online. If aftermarket is available, SWA is worth a call.

This car has struts not shocks. So look under suspension, then suspension components. There are aftermarket options so you could look into that. If you call scottsdale then ask if they have a kit for the struts. It includes the bumpers and other things you want to replace at this time. Luckily yours are relatively inexepnsive. Also inspect the springs and replace them if they look only or rusted.
