dropzone susp?
any1 on the forum using this setup dropzone springs/dropzone struts? im just curious on how it is..it looks like a good setup...but a pitbull looks cute from far away..lol
I just got the ksport springs, not coil overs....I used my KYB GR2 struts....The ride is very smooth and it's really low to the floor (2.2 inches drop in the front and 2 inches in the back)....Everyone told me not to do it, but I'm happy I did.

NY + any lowring kits =

He is in Cali, if most of the roads are pretty smooth the S-tech will feel like pillows (yea I'm being a bit dramatic). S-tech will remind you of the imperfection in the road, in NY I'm surprised Stock suspension holds up.
. . . damn Bronx roads
ok, well, haha. i have a 1997 maxima that the struts and shocks went out on.
i had to bite it and had no real choice to get them, soooo. i did it - do to money.
i got the dropzone's. everything sofar seems/looks and ride's pretty good here but, the wheel wall still has a gap. how do you fix that?
it's a 2'' drop with the stock wheels n tires 16''. if i got 18's put on it with the low pro tires/body kit, will that help? i will be coming into some money this summer so, i will be able to do some looks to the car and eventually in fall i will be boring out the motor + supercharger. (thats the plan).
So, how do i fill that openess between the wheel's and wheel wall, any advise?
also. could i replace the springs with these struts (you think)?
again, i have the stock 16'' rims on the car as well.

I did something stupid and I bought drop zone as well. There was also a gap between the wheel well and the tire. they also said a 2 inch drop I have 16inch rims on but for summer I have 18's so i tried putting on the 18's and there was still a gap in the front and a small gap in the back. So I called drop zone and told them my problem and sent them emails and pics, so now they are sending me new springs.....hopefully this will eliminate the gap in the wheel well! If not then i will return them and buy something better!!!! They said that they were life time warranty. So if they do fit correctly this time and something happens to them they will replace them for free! That really sux that they broke on motocross416's car!
i thought ibtl stood for "i bet thread lock" either way, thats what it means. I really wouldn't recommend drop zone. Think about this. You're going to have to spend a lot more money than upgraded springs if the drop zone give out on you on the highway and you crash. It's sorta of like i can save $60 now or spend $500 later fixing everything i messed up. If you're really tight on money, save it and looked for used set-ups
ight so im happy that i did my research on DropZone....but that pic shows the springs going bad but what about a tein s. tech springs with the dropzone shocks? has anybody tried that combo? if so what do you think. otherwise what else do you suggest?
If the springs are garbage don't you think the struts would be garbage too? With S-Techs I'd get Illuminas definitely. Those struts should handle the drop well enough.
My car has been on dropzone for a long time, and they haven't broke.... The ride is complete garbage though, I can't wait to get dropped on some S-Techs...
