Glad to hear you got them in! the bouncy-ness can be blamed on blown stock shocks, how many miles do you have on them brendan? but yes cornering is 100% improved! I noticed at higher speeds like on the interstate ithe ride is soft, almost stock like, but at slower speeds you can 'feel' the road a bit more.

I could have driven to California by now. Glad these were at a good deal or I would be hella mad.

Watch the Group Deal board...it will be soon as long as all members from last one received their springs okay....probably around the first week of May or so I will start generating interest.

Some people need to post pics of their drops! Lets see some before/after photos of the Maxspeed drop up close so we can know how it looks! Get that digital camera right in the wheel well and lets have a look-see!

I installed my maxspeeds with kyb agx struts on Sunday. So far so good, I like the drop. Car looks MUCH better. I don't own a digital camera, but might borrow one from work. Being able to set the stiffness on the struts is cool as hell.

I plan on putting up some once I am set. I am still waiting on courtesy Nissan to send me my suspension parts before I install them. Stay tuned though.

1) Dust covers
2) Spring isolator sleves
3) Spring perch mount isolators (upper perch front & rear)
4) Rubber bushings (rears)
5) Front sway bar end link bushings
But for the bushings instead of going back with rubber ones I am upgrading to the polyeurathane option. Just for longer life and better feel.

My car is brand new so I shouldn't have to worry about any of that just yet... I was just worried that you were referring to some parts that were necessary besides the springs in order to make them fit... I was under the impression that the springs were 'plug-n-play' compatible with the Max... I was concerned all of a sudden that they weren't...
Just to tell all with 4th gens with maxspeed/stock strut set up,
MY BACK SHOCKS ARE JUNK AFTER 1 DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I can't even drive the car, so I got AGX's that are going in monday. What the hell, I didn't want to spend the money, but am sure loofin forward to them AGX's!

That's why I want to see if there's any feedback out there from anyone who's used Maxspeeds for over 10K miles.
