PICS! I'M DROPPED, FINALLY! thanks to DNE

Here are some pics of my 2k with sprint springs and kyb gr2 struts.

Chris from the dallas nissan enthusiasts club helped me a lot with the install.

I am very happy with the outcome, very happy.

What do ya'll think?

Chris did most of the work, but i helped with what i could. It ended up being about 1.8-2.0 inch drop. Almost no body roll at all when i take it hard into corners. Ride isn't great, but isn't that bad. Thanks for the comments.

very nice, looks tight.
may i suggest one thing thou, get bigger rims. 18's would be perfect. the car is crying for those, man.

overall - VERY NICE!
ps was it very hard to change the rear ones? i have some experience changing front shocks on my old sentra, but i never got to the rears (car got jacked), so for an enthusiast would it be too hard?

Hell no, rears are much much easy to swap. It just takes a little time taking the trunk apart.

If I had the money I would get some gun metal 19's with a polished lip. but my money goes to my college right now.

Not sure what i want to do next, maybe an intake. But I live in texas so more hot air won't to too much good. 5-speed swap sounds fantastic though. ...yah right...
