thx it really rides good. before that i had eibach prokit with stock struts and i think the new tein setup is just as smooth or not smoothier. people are right on this org if you are going to drop the max.... wait and get the struts and do it right... a world of difference. i got pics on my site... u can see the drop on there.

^yeah, coilovers.

to post a pic, you right click the pic,properties,copy the address, come on the Org. post thread/reply, hit the little yellow button that says "insert image", paste the Adress/URl of the pic, hit the yellow button again, post,done. make sure there are no spaces in the adress and [IMG], OK.
You can go to the "test" section of the Org at the bottom and figure it out there

Completely? Only coilovers, be prepared for a crappy ride though:

if you didn't get a camber kit or bolt (which i hear bolts are noT very good to use), what would the camber be?

I was thinking about getting the lowering kit from custommaxima.com. I just cant decide. Either the Tein S Techs with Illuminas or the kit from custommaxima. What do you guys think? I really hate the 4x4 look of my Maxima and I want to get rid of it soon.

drop looks good but i am worried about the springs sagging after a while cause they are not a big brand like H&R and in Europe they use H&R springs as stock springs on a max.

trust me i wouldnt worry about sagging. the tein springs are a japanese spring made for a japanese car. im sure they engineered them well. these springs were being used for a while over seas .. they are new here.. but doesnt mean they are new in general.

Tein is a well known brand in Asia...many serious cars over there use Tein. But yea they are new here.

aznsap- I used the Eibach camber bolts from tirerack and they work fine...$25
