I'm replacing the suspension struts in my '93 TT with new stock parts ($!Ouch!$). I ordered rear dampers "ABSORBER KIT-SHOCK,REAR" (56210-30P25) and I noticed that two parts shown in NISSAN's exploded diagram for the kit were *not* included with the kit:

BUSHING RUBBER (56218-33P00) was not included.
TUBE-DISTANCE (55323-58S00) was not included.

I bought the two 'missing' parts just in case and used BUSHING RUBBER but did not use/need TUBE-DISTANCE.

In summary, my experience is that you don't need to buy the TUBE-DISTANCE parts when you are completely replacing your rear struts with all new stock parts, but you do need to purchase the BUSHING RUBBER parts (2 total; one for left side plus one for right side).
