But these should last the lifetime of the car no?

The shocks/struts should last about 2-3 years of optimal performance. After that, you'll lose enough dampening to feel it. Then again, at $100 per rebuild of each of four, that's only $400 for a for all intents and purposes, a new coil over setup. 2-3 years is just an average. It all depends on the road conditions (potholes), miles, weather, etc.

Correct. Give me a call 919-383-4605 or shoot me an email.
We should have our dealer program and national advertising going by next summer so expect to pay around $1000.

I just put in an order, 
Can't wait to get my suspension replaced...going for the more stock feel of a 7/5 spring rate.
Larry, you going to have RPM install yours? I am thinking of going with them.

These are the most comon ones. However, are these the only ones available? Optimally, I would like spring rates of around 500 lb/inch front, and 350 lb/inch rear. I wouldn't so much mind going up to 7kg/mm or 392 lb/inch for the rear springs, but for the front, from 448-594 is a HUGE jump.

I would also like to know.....if I go with a lower spring rate than default, will it effect how well the coilover will handle? I am thinking of maybe getting a softer spring rate since evrybody says it rides very similiar to stock. But I don't want the coilover to handle like **** u know?
UrbanImport, can I still order a different spring rate? Or did you already place the order with default spring rates?

I would like to know how the dampening is on these coilovers, I talked to a friend and he said that the dampening wasn't very good on D2s...i.e. very bouncy ride. Anyone can vouch for that? He is a big suspension guy so I would like to know your guys' opinions.

Sorry for not getting back to everyone sooner. The group buy is closed, I have put in the order with D2. We had one customer cancel so there is one more set of 00+ Maxima available if anyone wants it. The order is being put together right now and should ship from D2 shortly.
Momaxima- what kind of car does your friend have? We have sold over 200 sets of D2s across the board and not had any complaints about the dampening.

he said this group deal wil go on till the 7th, he placed the first order already, and he will be placing another order in 2-3weeks; this is what i gathered from the thread. You should call him, he's open till after 5pm too.
