Default got a ? for ya, fairladyZ...

The S-tune drop is 3/4 of an inch all around… and with the TE37’s installed, the drop looks great. I have fairly skinny fingers… and can fit 2 fingers between the fender and the tire in the front… and 2 fingers, tight, in the rear.
looks like in the pics, especially the one taken from the rear corner to the front of the car, that the fronts are lower than the rears...
but you mentioned that the 2 fingers in the back are more snug than the ones up front...
pls clarify!!!

hardy... might be the picture... just had the alignment done here.. and all looks good - feels good...

christurismohk... the total 4-wheel package cost me...US$ 2,200 at the current exchange rate -- including tax, center caps, wheel lugs, etc... Nothing is cheap here... as prices tend to stay the same for exports from Japan... -vs- ... the same product sold in Japan.

For imports - getting much more competitive pricing for many products. However, for import cars... bend over ... that is the way it is for exclusivity on BMWs, Benz, and Porsches here.

FairLadyZ could u plz post pics, if u have them, of ur car with the Nismo S tune suspension and the standard 6spoke 18" alloys u had prior.

Im not interested in fitting alloys atm, but would sure consider the Nismo if the drop looks right. Last pics i saw with the Eibachs, the wheels looked toed in at the top.

Fantastic! I was probably going to go with the S-tune setup myself, once it hits US shores under NISMO, but I may have to get me some TE37s! You have good taste!

I want to thank all of you for your compliments...

all_bark... I plan to post another S-tune update later on.. but so far, the S-tune together with the new wheel set offer a nice, tight, crisp turn-in, elimination of understeer, flat cornering, and superior dampening to control any impacts and bouncing.

SHIFTZ.... unfortunately, I did not take any pictures between getting the S-tune installed and the wheel installation which was done 10 days later.

Looking good FZinJ. The flat silver accents your car extremly nice.

BTW- keep us posted on that Nismo ECM when you get it installed.
