I just installed mine yesterday along with Sprint springs. I set them at 3 front and 4 rear. What does everyone set there at for everyday driving? Also include spring type.

i'm no sprints and i stay at 4/8, then sometimes if i am going to haul i put the fronts on 1 and keep the backs on 8, cause i do not like changing them.

I am going to try to get up with you soon. I want to see about getting some of those rear strut mounts. I am also going to get some urethane bushings, thought you might like to help me install those. Oddly enough, my interests have now taken me away from racing. Since I am on the road so much, (I have already put 37K on that motor) I decided to get back into car stereo competition. That way I can enjoy my car as I drive my weekly average 1000 miles.
I do hwever want it to handle good. The combo is a bit bouncy for my tastes, but not too bad. I figure when I get the settings right, it should take care of most of that.

I have H&Rs and I have my AGXs set at 1 front and 6 rear. This is the reason: The Maxima has a natural tendency to understeer. Stiffening the rear suspension reduces the understeer, so I keep the fronts on the softest setting and crank the rears down pretty tight for better handling.

GCs and AGX... i have 3F and 6R i think...

With the GCs, the ride gets a lil stiffer, but the HIGH A$$ spring rate really makes it just as stiff with any setting that you put it on...

Currently 2 front and 4 rear, and riding on H&R's. I am looking forward to getting the rear shock mounts that Mzmtg is selling, they will help out in getting rid of some of the stiffnes in the back.

i had mine set at 1/1 for a looong time and bumped it up to 3/4 for a more sporty ride. But i may go back to my old setup with H&R's...

Magikone69: for the front its a personal thing i ran them on 1 daily, but the rear needs 4 or higher b/c of the lack of wheel travel, unless you get some rear mounts (hint hint).


cut front intrax im on 2, the rear Eibachs are at 1.

Eibachs are 1 all around daily.
