Default Install complete!

The Swift's arrived from 3 Corner Garage muy pronto, and I did the install today with the help of a friend. Followed the DIY, and it was a breeze, though it did take about two hours to get the fronts in (an impact wrench is definitely your friend!). Rears couldn't be easier.

I started out stock with 1 7/8" in front, and 1 1/2" in the rear. After the install and a short shake down ride, I ended up with 1" in the front, and 3/4" in the rear. We'll give it about a week to settle and then I'll get an alignment done to check the specs.

Just from a feel stand point, the steering seems as neutral and centered as before (no major alignment issues). On city streets, the car seems to "settle" a bit faster than the stock Nismo springs, and the car feels a bit flatter in sharp corners. I haven't ran it hard yet, but will get a chance later in the week. I'll try and get a pic or two up in the next day or so.

Next up, install of the Z1 oil cooler, and then the long wait for the FI CBE.
