The sticky post was real helpful, I think I am going to lower it in about 2 weeks. Do any of you have, or know of where I can find a website that has detailed instructions on how to replace the struts and lower the car. Thanks

lowering it yourself really isnt all too difficult if you have any basic knowledge of cars and suspension, the main difficulty i had when lowering mine was that a few bolts were a pain to get loose.

The best source is the Nissan FSM or some aftermarket manual. If you don't have one, you should get one before attempting such work for the first time. It's the same procedure as replacing shocks but you install the lowering springs onto the shock perches instead of the stock springs upon re-installation.
