If Nissan had made the Nismo springs much lower, I would have bought it without any hesitation...
I believe the reason that it doesn't lower the car very much is because it doesn't require chamber, toe, caster adjustment. I still haven't been able to find info on how low the drop is though hopefully 3/4 inch like the last nismos.

Big surprise!

The $695 price on the strut/spring package is no longer valid (even though I was the first person to try to order it). I am now trying to lock in the $840 price from another vendor.

To the original sources credit, they offered me their cost plus 10%.

When I finally get the package installed, I will have the car's castor/camber ect. rechecked and reset to the factory specs (listed elseware on this forum). I feel it is just good practice any time a suspension is modified (even with just a little change in ride height).
