Springs installed! Pics. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Nismo240SX · 10-27-2003, 08:37 AM

I finally installed my set of DropZone springs that i got free. I had a front set of used KYB GR2s and a rear set of OEM struts that are almost gone. The springs ride good, make the car handle really well, but i'm bouncy in the rear due to my rear struts almost shot. As for the lowering, it lowered the back 2 inches and the front about 1 and 3/4 inches. I'm going to replace all of the struts, but i don't know what kind to buy, which i'm taking opinions on. But anywho, here are some pics of how the car sits.

Looks nice for free. Kinda remindes me of an awd car squating when it launches.

Looks good, except the rims, never liked those.

Anyways get off the grass

Nismo240SX · 10-27-2003, 09:09 AM

how could you not like heavy rims that have a FWD offset?

I'm wanting a set of watanabes. Somebody hook me up!

Dousan_PG · 10-27-2003, 09:12 AM

lower the front more or raise the rear
looks like crap like that

I know someone kinda selling some wats, but they are only 6 inch, and I dunno if he is gonna be selling them to a non-local
