Pairing them with bilsteins. They are the spec-r track springs, 7.5 front 8.2 rear. I was told the bilsteins are valved well to match these spring rates by a swift engineer but I can obviously get them revalved if necessary.

Fixed my OBD ii port, got it in the ready state for smog, and gave it a nice cleaning and minor detailing.

Installed three out of my four Tanabe springs. the rears were easy. The fronts...not so much. Taking it to a shop to install the other front spring when they do the alignment tomorrow. It was a b**** and took three hours just to do the front rights. Hoping they don't rape me in prices. They quoted me at 220 to install all four and install the rear camber kit so I'm hoping it's at least 1/4 of that ($55) plus the alignment ($77). We'll see.

I would have went a little higher. 10 f 12 r. The stock Nismo springs are 8 f 12 r. It felt perfect. Didn't feel stiff at all. Just too high and a lot of wheel gap.

Redline, seems like overkill at that power level. Maybe because racecar? Take some pics when you get them mounted.

727, are those XXR wheels? I was looking into the same wheel if so. What sizes you got? MOAR pics.
