A buddy of mine that works at Nissan said he'd install coilovers for $200 along with Dondrell who works for Corr.

That's what it was I heard. Sorry I was a bit off LOL.

Greg, I'll get back to you on it but I'm interested.

Not necessarily so, coilovers will be just as stiff whether you are stock height or laying your diff on the ground. That is what the dampening adjustment is for.

Now handeling wise, is where height comes into play, because you start to mess with your center of gravity, roll center, and bumpsteer.


If anyone wants coilovers installed, I'd be willing to do it for $180. I have plenty of experience with coilovers, and adjusting them.

I have all stock arms, and I am able to rotate my tires so that helps.

Nice! I didn't think about that... So if were to say get Azenis and run stock arms, I'd just need to rotate them every so often?

Do you have sways?

All motorcycle helmets are dot approved, they have to be. Snell is a newer requirement.
