My current alignment is treating the tires great at 25k miles. Probably the last 10-15k were with the new alignment and on Eibachs. Hoping to get in the same range with Swifts. RCZ hooked me up with a sweet camber setting.

Can't wait for the shipment to arrive!

Will be getting new tires also.

chesirecat is that you from my350z with the OC issue?
Haha you ordered them already!? We will likely be getting ours the same day, hopefully they come in soon, I can't wait to get them on. I'm planning on a Friday install and a Sat/Sun drive

Saku Ono emailed me back the other day saying my springs will be hitting the states by the end of the week, then have to clear customs, then get back into shipping to come to me here in Italy. Gotta love it! I guess good things come to those who wait, NOT!

Billy told me yesterday by mid next week or towards the end of the week. The sooner the better!

Swift tested their springs across the pond and on the American shores, you can be the first to review how they handle Euro roads!

Billy said they had about 10 unreserved coming in on the container, now they have 8 left.

To those still on the fence, you better get them while they last because the next container could be a long way off especially with the current situation across the pond.

Yes I will be sure to post something when I get them on and open the car up on the auto-strata. Going to hit some good roads going up to Germany too when it comes time to track the car up there. Glad to see the shippment of springs has hit the states....almost there

What is fastest posted speed limit (mph) of the autostrada? 93mph??

Should be a good drive to Germany. What track are you going to?

Search of German Race Tracks:

EuroSpeedway Lausitz
* Hockenheimring
* Hockenheimring Short Track
* Nurburgring
* Oschersleben
* Porsche Leipzig
* Sachsenring
* STC Spreewaldring Training Center

Would love to see some photos of the 370Z with the Euro landscape.

Yup, after we chatted on the last run, I had to see what all the excitement was all about. Read up on previous Swift threads and was sold. Thanks Mike for introducing me to these sweet springs.

I will have to wait until April 11 for my installer to return from vacation. But they will be dialed in by my Run coming up on May 21. I just posted my alignment specs on one of the wheel spacer Eibach install threads. I will scan the alignment spec sheets and em to you. I am looking for the same camber setup as before with the Eibachs.

Can't wait for:

1) Swift springs to be delivered.
2) May 21 Brunch Run
