Kpsorts.....they having that GD (GroupDeal) for 795 shipped, thats real good prices, cuz the cheapest price i find so far was 870. But go for Ksports so yu wont regret later. D2 and Ksports is pretty much the same, but D2 makes noises. http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=430568

ALOT of troubleshooting. General assembly knowledge and ability to remove/install individual parts at will.

That's why a lot of people get sick of them and go with struts/springs. But the handling alone is supposedly worth it.

I just got my Ksports on and its a lot of adjusting...especially so in the break in period. But they'll be worth it for the drop i want and the ride. I'll get it eventually

Who would change from Coilovers to strut/springs? Only those who are idiot that buy some bullshiet/cheapazz coilovers. Strut/springs is nothing compare to coilovers, performance wise!!!!!!!!

oh i like them but they are too soft for my spring rate. They are about 10-15% stiffer than stock but my spring rates are high so its bouncy but if you buy tein springs u will be good or if u custom order gc w/ your own spring rate you should be good
