I was browsing through ebay, and stumbled upon a cool find suspension setup The guy wants 430$ for the whole thing, local pick up, do you think it is worth it or not, also what type of performance am I looking at?

 

It will ride very nice, great setup good price

 

HRM, I am seriously intrested, but the thing is I dont know if that is such a good set up, because I am going to put on the HP Blues, and the eibach springs, isnt that soft shocks, and rough springs? Will that really be a good combo?

 

Blues and Eibachs? You might as well get the group deal on KYB GR-2's and Progress Springs for $380.00 shipped, I really don't see the parts in that e-bay deal as any superior. You will also get a warranty etc with the group deal.

 

Hrm, so you dont think this is such a hot deal??? See I am new to this stuff, what about if I can get it for 340? Will that be better, the one thing that is stopping me is that getting the blues which are apparently soft, with the eibach springs, which are stiff, I think that will cause problems. But I am not sure, can someone with maybe a little more experience want to help me?

 

I say that becuase I have the progress and GR-2 combo and have had it on my car for some time. I think you will be fine with the struts and springs (because many would say do not go with the suspension set up that I have because of the spring/shock combo, but I can assure you my suspension feels as comfortable as my stock suspension, and handles in a whole other league, this is not a cheap feeling bumpy suspension) but I can't really say for sure because I do not have that set up. If you could get it for 340 shipped I say go for it, if it gets up in the 380 range I would jump on the group deal.

 

Thanx a lot of the reply I appreciate it, so you think I should go for it huh? Also pal can you do me a huge favor, can you search the forum and tell me what if anything you can find on code 8 3 which is absolute pressure sensor, I dont know if thats the MAFS or the MAP, and the FAQ codes, dont explain any of it, THANKS IN ADVANCE

 

If you don't have a Hanes manual by now you need to get one. It will outline all codes in it and tell you how to take care of them.

You also need one of these

If you have a question about the absolute pressure sensor you can start a thread outling your questions and members will respond.

Go to the Forums on this sight and do a search and you will most likely find what you are looking for

let me know if you need anything

 

LOL yes I know I wanted to donate, but by that time they weren't taking any more donations I did post up a thread but no one seems to reply http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=291257

I was wondering if you can do a search for me on this topic "absolute pressure sensor" because I can't find anything on it

 

Eibachs are way too stiff for blues:

Cheston ran Eibachs and blues, and his rears only lasted about 10k miles before they blew.

 

drewm, so you are saying its a bad set up, I shouldnt get them??? They really are going to blow up?

 

They will leak, yes, and you'll have to change them out again.

 

how low are the eibachs?

 

They don't give much of a drop. The first generation eibachs were really rough.. The current ones give good handling without being super stiff.. But some of what you are paying for is the name. Follow drewm's link to find out more about suspension setups.

To the first poster: stay away from blues.

 

That setup wouldn't last long and wouldn't handle much better than stock. Get the group deal if all you care about is durability. If not get the Tokico Illuminas/Springs from CM for the adjustability/handling improvement.
