- A couple hours of my time. Install is much more straight-forward compared to a spring-only set-up as the fronts are already assembled, and the rears are as easy as they get.
If I get the BCs instead of Swift springs, I'll hopefully get the same results as you, since I don't want to slam the car. 1" minum to 1.5" maximum drop. Raise it back up a bit for winter.

Search for my thread and there are some pix in there along with some information

currently running BC coils with SPC camber kit (front and rear)

I installed everything myself so i have no idea what installation would be, but plan to throw down about $1500+ for everything.

I also am not running crazy camber i believe my fronts are at like -.5 and rears are -1.5 but that's cause of weather and crappy roads

i plan on playing with the stance a little since winter is over so i ll let you know about the alignment.
I was considering BC Racing stuff, but i've heard that BC=Megan. I was wondering what was your justification of buying BC instead of Megan? Yeah I planned that everything was going to cost at least $1200+. What is your current alignment settings??

Ya I agree the BC doesnt equal Megan.

I had BC's on my 350Z and they were amazing. Handling was extremely sharp. I will buy them for my G

If you have an X as your SN refers to, you don't have much of a choice
