I was doing some research trying to find what would be the best option for improved handling but a comfortable ride.. was leaning towards Illuminas and H&R's or Progress springs when I saw this:

Anyone ever tried these on their Maxima? Comments? Would they be better than Illuminas/H&R or Illumina/Progress combos?

 

Seems expensive. For that price you could just about get Tien Basic Coilovers.

 

Yeah, thats why i want to see if anyone hes used these before..

 

The article says......

"We at Maxima.org rate this suspension excellent and we would recommend this for anyone looking to improve the performance and stability of their A32(95-99) suspension without sacrificing quality and road tolerance."


Who's the "we"? Aren't the users of this board the "we"? And have "we" seen or heard feedback from anybody on here that has actually installed this set up?

That description is nothing short of a sponser plugging an item.

 

I wrote that Writeup, and it was written for VQpower.com but was copied over to Maxima.org with a couple name changes. The system is very responsive in cornering as well as ride comfortable. The supression of road unevenness is nothing short of luxurious.

 

Cattman products are always a bit pricey, but always of good quality and well-made. I'd say there are fewer complaints about Cattman products on here than pretty much any other product on here, frankly...

 

I was surprised when I took a ride in the test car for this suspension. The Australians made a nice package for the A32.

 

So would you guys recommend these over a Illumina and progress/H&R setup?

 

well it depends wat kind of ride you want. The Pedders springs are pretty Eibach-Alike, however the struts are perfectly matched to their spring rate to keep the ride surprisingly stable and smooth.
