You shouldnt lower you car, it will make the tires carry more weight.

In fact, dont ever modify your car, it will void your warranty and Nissan will take you to court.


































Of course, I could be wrong. Put em on, you can take em back off whenever you want to.

Is this a joke? If not... springs cannot make tires carry more weight. Before/after springs the car weighs the same. It also has the same four tires that support it. Nowhere is there more weight carried.

If this is a joke.. oh well...


My thought on Eibachs...
I've got em on my car. If all you're looking for is a lower ride and you aren't after performance, you probably don't wan't eibachs and would be better off with H&Rs which offer a much softer ride than the eibachs.

If you want a tighter ride then Eibachs are good, but you should get new shocks while you're at it. I recommend the KYBs or Konis as the Tokicos I have just seem overwhelmed by the Eibachs.

Put them on and take them off later... you'll enjoy the time in between.
