Copy and pasting my thread from Nicoforums to get to know some of you guys..
I have 22x9 ACE Mesh7 wheels.. with a +38 offset all the way around..
245/30/22 continental DWS tires.
I recently installed my springs, new kyb gr2 shocks, SPC/Eibach front upper adjustable control arms and SPC rear adjustable control arms with exteme toe bolts.
Install wasn't too bad besides milling out that slot for the Toe bolts.. because the bracket for the 4 wheel steering is steel and the carbide burr chattered alot. Still wasn't too bad I guess, overall.. but definitely worth it IMO. Install of all the suspension etc took around 5 hrs..
The drop is PERFECT on 22's IMO.
I am glad I went ahead and got the good suspension parts from eibach/SPC.. I toyed around with the idea of ichiba or whatever.. but eff that ... chinese junk. Learned that lesson before.
I just got an alignment done.. which was way over priced IMO.. but I needed to take it to a body shop for the alignment due to the adjustable camber arms up front. They said I needed a "race alignment" haha..
My primary focus was even tire wear.. then performance.
The car rides nicer than it did on the stock Sport suspension and stock 19's. I think its due to my tire choice .. the Continental DWS are super quiet and very comfortable. I have a tiny bit more feedback in my steering wheel.. but the overall ride is better/more comfortable and definitely more sporty. (the Kyb gr2 arent designed for the sport model.. so they are a little more soft than the oem sport shocks)
The Drop is perrrfect
Good job Eibach!
Finally got my custom tags in
Thanks to Coz @ ConceptZperformance.. I got a kickass deal on my Akebono calipers F/R, SS lines, Stoptech rotors.. and posi-quiet pads (supposedly like the lowest dust pad available)
I sent them out to Mike the powdercoater for a custom anodized red color.. I think it'lll set of the M45 perfectly.
then I think i'll do a roof spoiler.. .. paint the lil nubs on the 2007 grill black... then do an exhaust..and then i'll focus back on my 1000rwhp 300zx twinturbo build Its been so hot here lately.. that I didn't want to be couped up in shop ...
just figured i'd share!
