Nismo - Swift Spec R Springs - Front Only???

birdmanx1 · 07-11-2011, 11:07 AM

Don't be nervous about dropping the car, your front lip will thank you for it LOL. V, you'll just have to be more conscious of steep inclines and taking bumps at high speed. Other than that, you'll enjoy the pros against the cons... I know I do. I can count the number of times I scraped the bottom of the front lip and I can always replace it for cheap in a few months/years if I feel like there is a need for it. You won't have the same issue as the guy who dropped his car over 3"; that's a guarantee but you'll probably notice a need for spacers or fatter tires/rims once you drop it. There you have it, your next future mods before you even got your Swift

The Swift Springs have arrived! One thing at a time, next up...camber arms...I guess I should wait until I see if I really need them. I am the kind of person that likes things to be precisely at factory specs, not close to them. I guess this answers my question...get the front and rear camber arms.

Mine did think the same as well until she saw the end result and she is very pleased with it. The main thing she has been able to hold me back up to now are black or gunmetal rims; I love the current stock rims so I will wait for to grow out of it before getting newer rims

If and when you go with the spacers, the H&R DRS will do the job.
