I just bought my maxspeeds today and plan to order the Gr2's soon, but would like to get an idea what it will look like. So anyone that has this set up please post pictures for me.

thanks

your car does not look like it has been dropped, it has a worse wheel gap then my stock car. I have seen this setup on BlueC's maxima but i want to see it on more then one car. Anyone else that has this set up, please post pictures.

thanks

 

well for the record, it's not my car, it belongs to Will (Metallic97gxe)

Thanks guys !!

JLiusifer, it seems us MN guys are all getting the same suspension set up. BlueC, you, and now I have this set up.

 

ha ok. Yeah my gap is larger than yours, since i'm on 225/45/17...I'll drop it sooner or later.

 

I'm happy with my maxspeed/gr-2 setup... it doesn't by any means looks slammed to the ground, it just looks like it should have looked from the factory in the first place.

 

wow that looks amazing , are those 17's? and what size tire do you have on those?

thanks

 

Yea, those are the 17" 2001 AE edition wheels.

For the tires, I have Bridgestone Potenza RE730's, size 205/50R17... awesome tires.

 

On this one you can see the front frop a bit better...

 

How's that setup ride? I'm thinking about going that route once i get the cash for a new suspension setup.
Thanks,
John

 

It's definitely a change from the stock suspension, but I think it was a good change. It's just more stiff, and much more sporty feeling. It's not very harsh at all... friends who ride in my car comment that my car rides very comfortably, so I figure it's okay as long as I'm not getting any complaints. And I like not having that bouncy feeling that some cars get when you lower them... like at night when you see a car's headlights bouncing up and down as they pass over every crack in the road because they've lowered their car and used really harsh springs. Yea... you don't get that with the Maxspeeds.

The main reason that I went with the Maxspeeds is because everything I read at the time said they were the closest to stock feel.

As far as the GR-2's, I have no complaints. Nice and smooth.

 

why do maxspeed cost so less compared to eibach and h&r?

 

why didnt you get 235/45 ? Isnt your tach way off with those tires?

 

no...

My speedometer is off by ~1 or 2 mph though (as far as I can tell from those radar things they set up on the side of the road that tell you your speed). Those things usually say I'm going about 2 MPH slower than my speedometer says I'm going.

I wanted pretty low-profile tires, so that's why I went with what I went with. This summer I think I'm going to try out the new Fuzions... they're cheaper and they seem to be getting fairly decent reviews.

 

anyone have pics of this setup with stock wheels?

 

blueC has it on his homepage. kinda hard to see. you could also look here, he just photoshoped those rims in.

not bad it looks a tad bit lower than stock. maybe I'd need to see inperson

 

i see it probably once a week side by side with my stock set up, you can definetly tell a differnce.
