Default Nismo sways and suspension installed

Wow! What a difference. I did the install over two days. But that included installing nismo rears and sides too. The suspension install could not have been any easier. The sway bars were just as easy, besides a few bolts that were a little stubborn. I bought the parts from brinster34 on ebay. The suspension was $1200 shipped and the sways were $380 shipped. I don't know how he does it but his prices are absolutly insane. Here's the link I used for the install.

Nice. Now post up some pictures. I wish I knew someone with this set up local so I could see how it handles first hand.

Brinster34 is the parts manager of Hall Nissan in Virginia Beach. He sells stuff at very little over his price. I would imagine he ends up making a good profit with the volume he does.

Default Congrats

Congrats on the install, I have the same setup and really like it alot, aggressive enough for Auto Cross and Occasional Road Course, and still reasonably good ride quality.

Nice, looks great. The ebay sale notes that the suspension lowers the car 15mm, all the other sites I have seen selling the s-tune state a 20mm drop. I assume this is the same kit but the 15mm drop is a typo.

Will try to email the seller (brinster34).

Your car looks great. Unfortunately, the side profile pics show that the 06-07 Z's NEED a front lip badly. People need to get on the ball and make some.
