X band is annoying especially because it goes off for most of the false readings, I need to read the instructions and do that then. I was amazed at the difference in build between the stock and Swift springs, really goes to show the OEM compromises.

lol X band is almost completely unused in the USA now. you should definitely turn it off as it's impeding detection of the more critical bands...like Ka. what detector do you have?

The Beltronics RX65, I love it so far but it would be great to turn off X band for sure. Most of the times I have picked up real detector signals, it has read Ka and K band because I believe California Highway Patrol use Ka almost exclusively.

As I posted earlier, I've only scraped once on the mufflers. Sorry, but these are the only pics I have from the rear; one at the car wash, one at Import Face Off

I measured the lowest part of the muffler a few minutes ago. It sits about 3.75 to 4 inches from the ground

So for buyers of both springs, dead coils up or down?

Swifts, the dead coils are up.

I went dead coils up on my H&R also. That puts the writing right side up which I figured was correct.

For Swift I dont remember which way I have it facing up or down. but I just made sure that the Swift Logo was right side up.
LOL.

i like this thread a lot. Im gonna plan on drifting my 2010 Base model Z so i want a kinda stiff set up. body roll is garbage when snapping the rear end out of a drift and into another direction. Are the Swift springs stiff enough in corners? or should i look at a coilover kit. cause im leaning more towards somethin more legit than springs. how do u guys feel about something like this? the sport spec set up sounds stiff enough in the rear for me

H&R owners, tell us your impressions after installation. The car became less comfortable?

Can the Siwft springs be installed on the Nismo the same as on the standard Z?
