We want Pics of your suspensions....

We (Me and GTR_Rider) are making a site on suspension...Mostly pictures for people to compare them in every way we can and pictures to see the drop so those who can't decide on what they want can take a look and just maybe help them decide.

Those who would like to provide us with pictures to use...
Please provide the following info:
Maxima.org Handle:
Springs:
Shocks:
How you like the handling:
How you like your ride:
Comments on the suspension:
Anything that helps your suspension:

Please send the pics, as many as you want and we'll try to choose the best one to use, to finalgearmax@aol.com...
Any questions or comments please IM me, email me, or reply to this post.

Thanks Guys,
Chris

Both I guess since really they can mostly see the wheel gaps...

Thanks

here is a post I made a little while ago. It compares stock to maxspeed to sprint. Look a the last reply for a good maxspeed to sprint comparison. If you need anything else, let me know.

- H&R springs(cut one coil down all around) 2-finger gap all around!
- Tokico Blues all around
- Stillen FSTB and RSB
- Courtesy RSTB
- 18" rims with 235/40/18 tires

The ride is litterally the same even after the springs were cut. As far as handling the car does have limits. Any bank turn over 80 the car does roll a lil. If i hit them around 60 the car just hugs the road and goes. For daily driving, hitting heavy bumps obviously will jolt the car a lil. But over smaller ones its pretty close to what the stock ride was. Now that im on 18's you can feel almost every little crack on the street, but its all worth the attention i get rollin on them

heres a side shot:

rear shot:

Other info you might want:

You might also want to ask for rim and tire sizes, because they can materially affect not only the appearance (wheel gap, etc.), but also ride comfort and handling...just a thought...

well, I don't know if the picture is clear enough...but its the only one I've got >>

And it is my sig pic.

Maxima.org Handle: Look over to your left of the screen

Springs: H&R

Shocks: KYB AGX

How you like the handling: Stiffness is just right; damping could be a bit more progressive

How you like your ride: A bit bumpy - especially on I95

Comments on the suspension: Good stuff - in terms of ride height, its how the car should've come

Anything that helps your suspension: If your doing this, Warpspeed SFCs are a must.

Maxima.org Handle:
Springs: eibach
Shocks: kyb agx set to 3 in front and 4 in back
How you like the handling: Great considering I'm on 215/55/16 and that this a maxima with the crappy rear multilink susupension
How you like your ride: stiff, my back hurts sometimes, bumpy at times
Comments on the suspension:
Anything that helps your suspension: I've put spacers in the rear to give the back side a lift. I like the raked look like a hot rod

I've posted some pics on my website go there for them. I don't a new pic up with the spacers in yet but there is a good before and after shot of the susupension

What kind of spacers did you use?
