Got the first front assembly installed and decided to post a couple pics and have a beer break...

 

Sorry these aren't rotated, the forum software won't accept 480x640 images, only 640x480...

 

Good Work. Looks Great. When you're done, be sure to let us know how long it took and the difficulty of the installation.

 

OK, I got the other front side in.

A hint for those taking this install on: Take both front shock's out before installing either side. The drop will make it very difficult to remove the other side if you install one before removing both, as I found...

Anyway, jet lag is setting in so I'm going to install the front sway and the rear shocks, springs and sway in the morning.

 

Let us know how she drives with the mods.

 

Im seriously considering this set up let me know how it rides. Looks great..................

 

please.........

Some pics and how much drop will be nice too, thanks!

M.

 

This is prolly my next mod ( a drop ). Keep us updated.

 

Done!

Sorry for the delay, but I've unexpectantly been working 12+ hours a day since Saturday afternoon (start at 9:00p and leave at 9:00am).

Anyway, the ride quality based on the short drive I just took is excellent. A little stiffer than the stock suspension, but all in all I like it better than stock so far. A little more like how I expected a sports car to feel. Handling is also excellent so far. took a few turns and was impressed with the difference from stock. Much, much better than stock.

Install was relatively simple, though Nissan doesn't always follow their own torque settings as found in the service manual. Had to pick up a 18" breaker bar to get the front sway bar off. (Note: As much as I dislike Sears, Craftsman tools are really great.)

I'll post pics tomorrow when there's some light, plus I need to get some sleep...

 

Hmmm, I don't see a recent one from you Victor...

 

No bounce?

 

I'll get it out on I5 over the weekend and see how it does, but it's definetly stiffer.

Rear shock, spring and sway:

 

Side view. The car is wet and dirty, but you get the idea...

 

About the same angle as the one I posted in the tires and wheels section before installing the S-tune:

 

You have homework, then

 

You mean roadwork?

Here's the other side:

 

Wow Kevin, I am impressed, the car looks great...love the tires and wheels. I must see it close up and personal at our next meet.Can I have a ride for comparison purposes? Marcy

 

Hi Marcy,

Thanks, and I'd be happy to take you for a ride at the next get together.

Kevin

 

Ksj- looks great, but not to confuse others, the 3rd to last picture is of the front strut & sway. How is camber now that you are 1" lower?

 

I saw what I posted earlier today and wondered when someone would notice that, I clicked the wrong file when I uploaded it.

I'm taking it in for an alignment tomorrow, so I'll find out then what the current camber is at...

This is the real rear shock & spring:
