2015 Nismo lowered on stock wheels? pics and setups.

2chrisp · 10-22-2018, 08:01 PM

Hi, so from what I’ve read so what been told and seen so far that springs tend to loosen up the ride? For a more accurate drop coils or bags but drive is still so so?

I’m in the same situation as HIZZY.. I love the stiffness of the nismo. My winter beater has H&R race springs and I love it.

Not looking for a drastic drop but enough to keep the stiff/race like ride.

Breaking the cycle... I got a like for my car with the stock wheels so I had to update.

19x9.5+15 (245 40 19)
19x11+8 (285 35 19)

Coilovers are a great way to go. My M7 Japan coillvers to me make my car much more enjoyable. I feel like the valving or something is off on the nismo suspension. That too bouncy feel annoyed me personally.

My car handles a lot better now with much less body roll as well.

Bro you gotta cut that thing out of the front fender!! I cut mine out and took old credit cards and wrapped in matte black vinyl and then bought tiny black screws and created a plastic plate to cover it... looked so legit and you cant even see it.

I do things you cant even see top notch. Some say waste of time. To me well worth it

Keep in mind, what Volk did may take a little more time and may seem to some as overboard but it's all about the details. Even as small as some are.

My code name is Overkill. If I acquire super hero.powers and become a vigilante my name will also be overkill but for more badass reasons lol

My front tabs also rubbed off due to low ride height + aggressive front fitment

Had a bodyshop "fix" it. They fabbed up a little bracket that solved the issue, tight fitment now, no gap, won't fall apart
