Finally installed the H&R 20 mm front and 25 mm rear bolt-on spacers. Quality is so much better than the Ichiba V2s I ran on my 350Z. Installation was a breeze with zero issues. Now, if only the Swift springs would get here a little faster. Here some before and after pics:

No problems whatsoever. As long as they're installed properly there won't be any issues.

^^Beautiful!! Any particular reason you went with the stud replacement up front rather than keeping it bolt-on spacers all around??

^ Thanks, at the time back in 2009 - H&R did not manufacture 20mm bolt on spacers for our cars. You guys now picking up 20mm's are lucky !

Do you need alignment after you install spacers? 20mm all around?

NO. Only when you lower the car are you messing with the alignment.
