I HAVE A 99 MAXIMA. STOCK HIGHT, I AM GETTING GROUND CONTROL FROM SUM GUY, OK, THI SIS THE QURSTION, WHAT DO I DO, HE SAID I NEED TO BUY THE ADJUSTABLE PART I DONT GET IT, WHAT ELSE DO I NEED, WILL THIS WROK WITH STOCK SHOKS, IF I GET SPRINGS AND NO SHOCKS WILL THE CAR HANDLE YUCKY AND AIR RIDDEY, WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO DROP IT , I WANT A 2" DROP, I WANNA BE HUGGING THE ROADD, I MIOGHT NOT BE ABLE TO DRIVE IT, BUT HEY IT WILL LOOK NICE HEE HEE HEE H

 

ah .. good old lurker ...
see if this helps

 

thi sis ridiculous... you will need new struts, what does he mean by the "adjustable part"? - that is the coilover. A 2" drop will not make you hug the road, a 4" drop will do that. A 2" drop is what you see in my sig but don't worry with Ground Control you can go as low as 4". If you plan on going past 2" lower you will need camber plates/bolts. It's not cheap but must be done right. And BTW with Ground Controls your ride will be "yucky" and bouncy if you lower it more than 1" or so.

Holy moly mother in heaven ... did someone get a bad bag of weed?

 

 

I SITILL DONT GET IT, DO I NEED NEW SPRINGS, JUS TELL ME WHAT I WOUL DNEED AND HOW MUCH ALL THIS WILL COSTTT, I DONNO, THIS DROP THIS SEEMS EXPENSIVEEE I ONLY GOT LIKR 500 TO SPEND, IF I CAN I WILL EVEN GO FOR A 3INCH DROPP

 

first of all, STOP TYPING IN CAPS!!!! it's very annoying. Ground Controls are coilover springs; which mean you can adjust the height of the car. you will need to purchase aftermarket shocks (ei. KYB AGX) if you want a good ride. Ground Controls with stock shocks are bad and a big no no. the stock shocks will blow quickly. now, if you want to lower it more than 2 inches, you will need to purchase some form of a camber kit. this is to correct the negative camber you will have as a result of lowering it more than 2 inches. now for the prices... ground controls about $400. kyb agx about $380. and camber kits...not sure...i'm still confused with those things. stillen sells their kit for around $235 or so. anyway, hope that helped a little.

 

alight , well the kid i am buying the ground control from, he said it will come with the edachi springs, soo i still to buy the shokcs right, damm , what will happen if i jus put then on with the same shoks, and jus drop the car liek 2 inches, will it workk

 

you dont get shocks, your stock shocks will be dead pretty soon. your ride will suckk and the car will bottom out. save up the dough, get the shocks and coils done at the same time. or at least like a couple months apart from one another

 

First, if he tells you you need to buy the adjustable part, you shouldn't get the the Ground Controls from him. Ground Controls come with the adjustable part as well as Eibach springs. You will definitely need new struts. Just get the struts before you drop anything. Even if its only 1". I wouldn't go lower than 2.5" for the street. You'll already have problems with that.

 

clee, your killing me. Thanks for the laugh.

 

That is very funny clee.... Get this kid a dictionary, somebody please
