That is awesome, thanks for the information! I am torn right now; should I do a brake revamp (pads/fluid) or should I go for Swift springs? Ah!

Depends when your budget replenishes Christian. I think the Swift Springs will have a 6-8 week wait before they are back in stock from what I heard. If you can squeeze in the brake-work beforehand, go for it!

I would order the springs now, or else you risk having to wait 2+ months to get another set... You can do your brakes anytime after with no wait time.

I hope these don't go any lower as I think it's perfect the way it is! I might even get away with not having a camber kit installed. I am ok with some negative camber even if out of spec...

are you still running nismo struts with these springs?

I will answer for him. No. He sold his suspension kit. He is on stock shocks, unless he just recently changed it.

ah thanks. must have missed that post.. hoping someone with a nismo installs these! (curious if the stiffer struts do anything to the drop)

Nope went back to OEM as I didn't really need the extra dampening.

Got my alignment today! I do not have any camber kits installed and it seems I don't need them. :)

Brought the rear camber to -1.9 (from -2.5).

Fronts are -1.8 and -1.2 (L/R) Did not change much at all, fronts are NOT adjustable.

Not sure why the difference...

Hmmm, so you were able to bring camber back to 'close to stock' specifications. That is good since I would prefer to save the $200 or so SPC camber arms cost right now.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 12:43 PM.
