You might not Need all of these, at least get the rear camber arms and toe bolts...Brand(s) of your choice of course.
Oh, OK.
I didn't think I'd need two pairs/sets until it came up earlier in the thread.
My plan is to go with the SPL camber arms and toe bolts and pass on the front upper control arms unless it turns out I need them.

Thanks.

Default Thrust Sheets

Did anyone install the Swift Springs thrust sheets from their website (Swift Springs USA)? Has anyone had squeaky springs after the install?

I'm about to pull the trigger on the Swifts, H&R spacers, and SPC rear camber/toe kit. I just want to make sure once I get it all in there that it will be quiet. Right now I get a bit of creaking from my Nismo springs.

The Swift thrust sheet only work with coilover springs. With inner diameters of 60|65|70mm. They will not work with the Lowering springs.

Shoot me a PM and I can help you with all those items, no problem.

Wen't back to the shop and they added some wire wrap on the bottom of both front springs, cleaned up the perches, and added lithium grease to places on the perch as well. No noise after that!! I hope it lasts...

They said there was already rubber on the top, so they didn't add anymore.

Got a re-alignment while I was there too.

Yeah depending on where you are located in the US. Typically within the week. Or early the following, when ordered.

Send me a PM and I can help you out

The very conservative Eibach Pro-Kit springs (on the Z33) drop the car a bit more. The Swift springs (on the Z34), on the other hand, provide superior damping and comfort.

Swift springs with 20/25 spacers. I enjoy the combo of the Swifts + the stock sport shocks. Works really well for the street. If anything I wish it didn't lower the car quite so much. If I could take it back up 1/2" or so I would.

Can anyone recommend a spring compressor that works on the Nismo and Swift springs? I saw in a write up on here that the tight spacing makes it difficult. I also don't want some cheap piece of crap that's going to fall apart.

Are these still the favorite among lowering springs? It seems like no one carries them.
