Hey guys!

I've had my springs installed now for a couple of weeks and just had an alignment and road force balance done today! I had two tires out of balance which was causing some unwanted vibration...but that's all taken care of now.

I attached my alignment sheet...I'm happy with the results and won't be purchasing a camber kit.

:tup:

Oh yeah...pictures will be up tomorrow!!

Swifts installed as of this Thursday! I've been too busy driving my face off till now :)

Gotta say, the drop is perfect to me. Only thing is, the wheels look a bit more inset since it's closer to the wider upper fender vs the tapered down lower side.

Ride really isn't noticeably harsher and I have much more confidence going into turns on my favorite stretch of road. Car stays much flatter and I've yet to see any understeer, so I guess it made the car more neutral.

I'm very happy with them!

another convert!...

Praise the Lord!!! :icon17:

testify!

:worship:

Wonder how these (Swift) will handle/ride with the new 2013 Euro-Sport Tuned shocks, available as an optional accessory upgrade for the 2013 model.

I am considering them over aftermarket shocks currently available because the price of a set of Koni Yellows is at $750. Plus roughly $325 for Swifts totaling $1075, now it's almost at the price of a good set of coil overs.

OEM (2009) shocks run $500. Euro-Sport Tuned shocks, I am guessing will be somewhere between $600-700 tops. It will be interesting to see who will be the first to pull the trigger on this combo.

Okiedokie!! I was finally able to get my car cleaned up and snap a few pictures since I installed my Swifts and got my alignment. Enjoy!!

Thanks for looking!

^^ Nice job -- looking sharp. :tup:

Love it! Looking good man!

Thanks man!!

Looks perfect with the spacers!

The drop really brings out the spaced look.

Looks good :tup:

Have you scraped the exhaust with this setup? I have Berks too and am a little concerned about scraping the low point on the exhaust.

This review makes me want to drop my car too. Me old knees keep me from this though.

I scrape my chin spoiler as it is, every day. What is it like for the guys who really drop them?

They really rub. Angles are your best friend but if your slammed some obstacles become impossible. The swift springs are perfect IMO.

Joshs09slvrZ, looking good bro!

No camber kit?

I was a little worried about scraping because the exhaust does hang kind of low just in front of the muffler...but I've gone over some decent sized speed bumps and haven't heard anything either (and that's with going over it slow with the radio off and windows down).

Thanks man!!

Nope...they were able to get the alignment back to within specs I am ok with. I'm totally ok with a little extra camber in the back than what the spec is.

Nice Josh!

How would you rate the ride with stock shocks. Still comfy?

I was wondering the same thing

I have a Berk CBE and Swifts -- I have never scraped the exhaust.

Swifts with OEM shocks are ok.. could be just a tad stiffer, imo.

I ran Swifts with stock dampers for about 4 months or so. It was good, but no where near as good as it is now with Koni's.

I wish i could get these but they will be to low for me because i have to daily drive the Z in a crazy corporate area for now. However i got RSR springs for the 370Z ordered on their way from Japan!!! They barely drop the car but its exactly what i need i think. Im wondering if i should pair up with Konis.Cant wait

I enjoy the ride. The springs do absorb some of the smaller bumps in the road...but the bigger bumps definitely feel more pronounced...I think that's just due to having a stiffer spring rate. Even my wife noticed that the ride was smoother than before. I don't necessarily think that upgrading your shocks right off the bat is required...unless you just wanted to get everything done at once.

Swift springs is offering contingency for our Z/G challenge along with Extreme speed track event's Time attack series if you guys want to try to win some springs!

Are you running spacers? I'm planning on switching over from my "hella flush" setup. I've come to the conclusion crazy wide wheels and slammed just isn't practical for a daily driver, not to mention I want my comfortable ride back. My cousin TJAZER swears by these.. Should have listened to him in the first place instead of going with my BC setup.. Which btw one of the rear coils has frozen in the highest position which is still lower than stock SMH.. Maybe I'm getting old.. haha

He's running a 15mm/20mm setup.

^ What he said!

Nice Josh! U from FL?

Yes I am! I'm in the Tampa area. What about you?

Finally read this entire thread.

Still not sure if I'm going to pick a camber kit.

Try it without, it's not the end of the world and if you don't like the camber or tire wear, buy a camber kit....

Last weekend I got Swift Springs, 20/25mm spacers and front and rear camber kits installed. I'm already done with the custom audio install too so I'll be looking to get Nismo wheels next.
