I am looking into buying some lowering springs and was wondering what to get and what you all have and how you like it. Please post what combo you have and also if possible a picture to see how low it is thanks- Happy Thanksgiving

 

I WILL be running tein H-techs with tokico illumina's. Check this site out for lots of suspension info as well as pics of different springs drops. If you'd like a good price on illumina's check out my sig. Happy Thanksgiving to you too.

Tien S-Tech and Tokico Illuminas. Not as low as the Sprints (1FSTMAX), but low enough that i scrape the **** out of my car.

Seriously, did you trim a coil or somthing. every time you post your drop I cant believe those are Sprints.
I have seen so many vehicles with the same setup as you, myself included and their not as low as you. Your fronts are so low, the wheel is tucked.
Dont get me wrong, it looks good. But either you have the only set of Sprints like that or they must be trimmed.

 

i know he cut 1.5 coils off the back, if you cut the front man how much did u cut off? also how does it handle like that? any pics of the cut?

 

H&R and AGX's ..Nice drop, but a little harsh especially in the winter.

 

[OT]1FSTMAX, What kinda wheels are those? Did they come in that bronze color? I like those[/OT]

currently you can only view all entries, is till have to re-add the springs and struts, and make the script to add more...

it may help out some... it should anyways

Running H&R springs with illuminias.

 

Stock Struts AND Spring . . . .


But plan on coupling some GR-2 and some H-Tech or S-Tech once I find out what the difference between the 2 are.

 

H-Techs are softer and less drop, S-Techs have bigger drop but firner ride.

By the way, I'm still undecided on whether I should get H&Rs or H-Techs...

 

i use leaf springs out of an 81 Jeep and shocks from a 74 monte

 

I didnt cut any coild off the front springs... They are stock Sprint springs... The wheels are Rota Subzero..

 

tein s-tech + tokico illuminas
awesome!

He guys quick question for the guys that have tokico hp, have been reading alot of threads that said the tokico hp sucks becuase it is no stiffer then the stock one that comes on the max, and the rear one will go out faster then compare with other struct. Is anyoff this is try? I mean it have work greatfor all the honda, acuara and imports cars, I just find that hard to believe that the tokico hp sucks so much when if comes to our nissan maxima. I'm haveving second thought after I bought them, I have the tokico hp and the tien h-tech setup. I'm planning to install them next week, I just hope that it corners better and it's a more stiffer then the stock shocks

 

Aerospeed yellows+ tokico blues.

this is a ricey combo, but they work great. very comfortable ride. I think this is due to the tokico performance.

 

what does everyone think about sprint springs?

 

It's not that they suck. It's that they are stock replacement (you do know not to lower on stock struts right?). They'll probably be fine for awhile, but will blow out faster than a strut made for lowering.

As far as the honda guys. These wouldn't be the same guys that like to lower 2" on stock struts and cut stock springs would they?

 

oh man, i am scared now after you guys pulled this discussion out about the tokico's. dude, weak. i just installed mine today and thought it rides good. and i have a 2 inch drop with the aerospeeds. hope it doesn't go out fast like you guys mentioned.
