ive been talking with one of the reps and he has been trying to get a hold of their supplier in taiwan to get pictures and such but its hard
im about 99% sure they are for the cefiero but the rep seems to think otherwise
he also said that they could piece together somthing for us but i said the rear strut on our cars would be real difficult so if anyone has a design idea please share
i sent him pics and diagrams of our suspension and he is going to see what he can do i doubt anything will get any farther though

This is not for the maxima; but notice the ones with the spindles on it. If some coilover companies can make coilovers like that, D2 (or any other company) can possibly make coilovers for our cars

they can be made, but find me 10 people with $1500 ea who'll pay for it to be done.

damn now that i spent my suspension money, ah well too late. Hope it goes well..

I know that jay n34jz would be in, but not too many people can spend money like that on their max. I would shell it out if they are to work for the 3rd gen. that would be 2 people... now to get 7 more...

send payment now then. when they get 10, they'll start making them. We did this with Cattman/Progress about a year ago and nobody stepped up to the plate with money.

talk is cheap.

we had about 5 or 6 people who were actually ready to go ahead with the deal, and I always say this but that was back when there were people around who were willing to spend money in order to get a quality and unique product. And to be honest with you at this point Id much rather take that money and buy JIC's for my G.

I think for the most part top quality mods such as these are the things we wish we had, but can't afford them, or don't want to sink money into - hence why most of us are driving 3rd gens (most of us anyway). Sure there are a handful of hardcore 3rd gen owners, but the rest are thinking Gr2's or Tokicos?
If I had the money, I'd definitely go for it. I think you'll hear alot of that. Damn, I wish I had them tho.

Since you're relatively new, I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and answer this question - keeping in mind, I looked this answer up:

Coilovers let you lower and raise the car to your liking. Most coilover springs can be adjusted from 1” to 3” lowering, depending on the manufacturer. Height is adjusted through use of a threaded sleeve and a dual locking perch mechanism.

I know it's not the maxima now. Are you driving it yet or your waiting for warmer weather.

no, it's the max, I'm just f-in' around.

though it is awfully summery out there today, I need the t-tops off and some thunder to make my day
