Help with coilovers please

Today I recieved my toser coilovers and all I can say is wow. These things look like they are high quality. The problem is on the box it says its for a 2001 ceifro. I know this is the equivalent to a maxima in japan, but is the suspension setup the same and will these still fit my 2000 max.

I think they will fit. Take a pic of those coilovers. I am looking to get some FULL COILOVERS myself. I just need to decide on what to get. I want to ride REALLY LOW

they should fit fine....from my personal research the Toser coilovers are the same as the TopSpeed coilovers...they look identical....and topspeed makes it for the max...imma go to my friend's shop and look at the catalog again....

OT, but if anyone is interested in purchasing Cattmann Coilover system, we should do a group buy... hopefully Brian Cattman will consider giving discounts... PM me...

I am sure that the cattmans are great!..BUT...for the same price i can get the JIC flt A1's or the teins. I just really want to have adjustible shocks, and the cattmans do not have that.

here are the jic flt a'1's....

I have gc coilovers. I have like a finger gap in the rear and 2 fingers up front. Likewise, I want around a finger or less all the way around and a even more stiff controlled ride. The gc's are fine, but i want some top quality full coilovers...Jason keeps telling me how GREAT the jic's are...lol

I have no problem with the Cattman coilovers but I can get the Teins for $1040.00 through sponsor and the JIC FLT-A1's I am waiting on prices. My sponsor can only get products that they sell. So cattman's I can't get unless I purchase myself.

Please let me know what kind of deal you can get of these. I would love to get some at a good price also. I'd greatly appreciate it.

oohhh ok. I am sort of leaning toward the JIC flt-A1's because i do not want to use any stock suspension parts on my new setup, and the teins require you to use them...

Yeah me too. That's why I am waiting. You should jump on the ones for sale by MaxTuner with the different spring rates. I know you have posted on there once.
