Remember though that the more the drop the harder to get the alignment back to stock without some after market camber and or toe kit.

I have the HKS Hipermax LS on my sedan. Can you guys adjust the height for me? I've done it before myself, but it's a PITA.

You can do the suspension install yourself, but it would really help if you had a lift, impact wrench, and spring compressors. If you don't have those or don't have access to them, then have it done for you.

Yeah it's not a problem. A lot easier to do when it is up on a lift, huh? Give me a call and we can arrange a time when you can stop by.

When in doubt, it is always best to take it to a qualified professional. Springs are fairly simple to install with the correct tools, but you also must make sure that the spring is properly seated, and the mounting points/control arms are in a 'normal state' when you torque everything back down.

Always get an alignment after lowering your car, be it with adjustable height coilovers, or springs.

You got that right! I'll be very busy for the next two weeks, but I'll try and set something up after that.

Thanks...Cru

i've been doing a little more research, and now i am finding that some people aren't recommending the stiffer "revised" springs for my g35 sedan with sports suspension, so i haven't been able to make a decision. My rear tires will rub with anything more than a 1/2"drop in the back.

Irish Skyline, what do you recommend?>

abc: get the unrevised springs with sports suspension on the sedan. i have it and it feels like stock. the rates match the existing springs so ur shocks won't wear out much faster than they normally would have

What size tires are you running? We just did two more sedans this week, one with the Tein CS Coilovers and another with HKS springs. PM "G35 Papa" he can tell you how much he likes it and he was going for a soft setup. He is also running Volk's. We also put him about a 3/4" drop and he is nowhere close to rubbing. A lot of it depends on the size tire obviously. Give me a little more information about your car and I will see what I can do. Thanks.

Jeff
