Opinion of DropZone Lowering springs?
This if from here http://maxmods.dyndns.org/index.php?MaximaSprings
Drop-Zone Springs
Description: The Drop-zone springs have a 2" drop all around. More of a show spring than a performance spring, the ride is somewhat soft compared to sprint and eibach. Users have said the springs don't drop as much as they say, and also sag in the rear a lot. The spring could possibly bring the front suspension very close to the bumpstops due to the extreme front drop which could cause suspension bottoming problems, especially with weak shocks. They should only be paired with adjustable shocks such as Koni Yellows, KYB AGX, or Tokico Illuminas.
Sprint Springs
Description: The Sprint springs have a 2.0" drop. They are known to look a little high in the rear, but that can be an advantage when you have a system in the trunk causing it to sag. Generally regarded as a good roadcourse/autocross spring, but many members of the forum say it's not as good as the Eibachs due to not enough suspension travel. The spring could possibly bring the front suspension very close to the bumpstops due to the extreme front drop which could cause suspension bottoming problems, especially with weak shocks. In addition, a few members have had problems with driveshafts wearing out because of the extreme angle that the springs put them at. They should only be paired with adjustable shocks such as Koni Yellows, KYB AGX, or Tokico Illuminas.
