This is probably a silly question, but I have a set of ksport coilovers from a 98 maxima. Is there any chance that they'll fit the 97 q45 I just bought? I'm pretty sure it's not an electric suspension model, it's not a touring model and it doesn't have a suspension dampening button. I called Ksport and they told me they couldn't identify the coilovers because they don't put model numbers on them. Here's a pic of them.

I've never head of that, but it's kind of a random deal. I think you're in "try it and see" territory.

The answer is no. FGY33's have the spindle welded to the strut.
