Well my new suspension is in, and I must say Im pretty happy with it. It rides very nice and soft. Too soft actually, I need to play with the illuminas setting to find the sweet spot. Right now they are on 2 on the front and 2 on the rear and it feels like a Cadillac compared to the sprints.
As far as the drop, the rear is the same as the sprints and the front only went up .2 inches. Making it sit even.
So far I like this setup. It being a while since I ride on the stock SE suspension, but from what I remember, I think this feel much softer on the current shock setting.
Tein H techs, and Tokico Illumina = awesome ride

 

 

looks very nice, you got performance rotors?

 

looks nice, but what made you swap setups?

 

Nice job! My H&R/Illumina setup rides like a caddy on 2 all around as well. Tein makes great riding springs. Try 3 all around for a nice firm sporty, yet still very comfy ride. The Illuminas are worth their weight in gold as far as ride quality goes. They blow away KYB and Koni as far as I'm concerned.

 

BOSS No I don't have performance rotors. The paint I use to paint my front calipers dried up the next day and couldn't use it to paint my rear calipers

Maxima10to1 I'm getting a body kit soon, so I wanted to raise the car a bit. Not that I didn't like my sprints.
I still love the way the sprints look and ride is not that bad. But now that I can compare these two suspensions, I'm impressed on how good the H techs and illuminas ride.

 

i like it!

 

Front only went up .2" huh? Looks like more than that to me? I have a set of H-Tech's in my garage and I'm debating wether I should switch them out with my Sprints. What would you do if you were me? I have no problem a harsh ride, even like it, enjoy razor-sharp cornering, but am worried about ground clearance with a bodykit.
Thanks bud!

looks nice.

nice max

 

I like the set up I was wondering how the roads are there because I am trying to piece together a perfect susp. setup for theses crappy new England roads. But I like how that looks and I can get those springs right now for a good price.

Also I like those rims what are they.

 

looks interesting...very noticable with the wheels.

 

Most roads here are very nice and new, but there is a few places where they are just horrible and I try to avoid them as much as possible.
The wheels are Mille Miglia EV-s

 

Hey man...why did u change from the Sprint/KYB combo?

 

Very Nice Ride Height! Congrats!

Looks great bro!

 

such a nice car looks great!

 

Dunno man, I like the sprint drop better....I have a front lip and sprints, and hardly scrape...

 

yeah man!. I agree, the sprints have a nice drop.
I'll prolly just keep these springs for a while then I'll try the S tech.
or maybe I'll have enough money for the JIC's

 

Optimus, you still have your KYB's.
Will you sell them to me?

 

it doesnt look low enough. My sprints give me a single finger gap all around(cut rear down 2 coils)PLUS i have the Stillen front lip and barely scrape myself, just as long as im careful

Yeah, but do you take your car to the city ever?

I like my H&R's but I wanna try S-Techs,

 

Nice man, looking good.

I think i may go with this setup now too, i've been trying to figure out what to go with and this def seems like a good combo

 

wtf this thread is almost a year old?

 

Looks nice man. I have a 5 speed like you and are going with the Illuminas and the H-Techs. The drop looks great. Now I know how my Max will look with that set-up. Thanks mang

 

Thx .............

 

opti forget the pm had no idea post was oldie ! looks good though

 

did u get urs off of ebay?

 

hhm nice and clean max, my car is such an ugly beige

 

Nope I got them from www.southwestautoworks.com about a year ago

After that year I'm still really happy with the setup, Nice, firm, and my car doesn't rattle as much as it did with sprints
