WTB: Front Suspension OEM or Stock NYC
Hey guys, I haven't been around for a while. Although I have a fully loaded 08FX 35, (Sport/Tech blah blah ) Sorry needed to brag, I've never forgot my maxima roots. Anyhow, I got myself a 1997 SE Rosewood/Black fully loaded stock, w/254k ... ... runs like a pearl. So Anyhow ... here is the deal ...
She needs front suspension ... I would want to replace the whole setup. In fact for a good price, I would be willing to buy the front and the back ...
(The back is fine, if you guys could give me some suggestions, would be great) Shocks/Struts/Springs/Bushings/ etc ... I never drove anything but stock setup ... But would be open to something different ... tokico blues, or any other better setups ... Recommendations are welcome ...
Ideally I would like to install/pick them up locally, or travel up to 150 miles from NYC. Whatever you guys have PM me or respond inside ... Thank you

Do you want to stay in a stock setup or lower the car? If stock, then just get KYB GR2s, they run for like 250 all 4 Now, if you want to lower the car, it is a different story. It all depends on your preferences. The best setup(height/comfort) is H&R springs with Tokico Illumina struts/shocks. Hope that helps.

So, here is my problem ... I hear a clunk noise whenever I move the steering wheel (right/left) ... I think my front strut bearing is shot (from what I've been reading). As well as ball joints ( Wheel play when going over 40 mph) ...So in theory if I replace my front and back suspension I should also change the strut bearing/ball joints? Lastly, how does stock ride compare to H&R Springs with Tociko's Illuminas? I never drove a lowered Maxima, I understand it to be better handling, but in which way?
Spasibo ... Great to see fellow ex-soviet-commies still own maxima's :-)
