Altima Coupe 08 Coilovers

[Theiranman69]

OK so i'm really looking to buy coilovers for my AC but can't find any really good deals. or much anything at all... some threads have some coilovers but are really expensive. any ideas? or should i just go with the Eibach springs and not get shocks?

there is like one co. that made coils that are no good. only thing worthy right not are the eiback spings, racingline or stillen strutbar, stillen rear sway bar and racingline endlinks. that all there is for suspension.

The car is still pretty new, and is not really a mainstream seller. I'm sure we'll see more stuff in the near future but it often takes a year or more for the aftermarket to catch up with a new vehicle, particularly something like the A/C which is a niche market. I'm eager to see what the makers do eventually come up with in the way of additional suspension mods.

this is tru. i dont trust these im sure they are decent. but not up to par http://www.ksportusa.com/asp/c...=cd01

yea i saw the K sport ones and the company's decent but i don't know if their coilovers for the AC are any good.

[Ferguson]

They should list different specs for 2.5s and 3.5s but they don't, probably for sedans and coupes, but they don't... I'd be skeptical...

Yeah unfortunately, K Sport are the only ones offering suspension components for the AC. I contact Koni about a week ago and spoke with the R&D person and he told me that Nissan and Koni were in talks earlier this year but Nissan pulled the plug on the project because they didn't think the ROI would be sufficient to warrant such a project. I also contacted KYB yesterday and spoke to thier R&D person and they said that they will be offering GR-2 shocks for the Altima, Sedans first then coupes but as for adjustable shocks like the AGX, they are not pursuing that path. The cost of machining and valving again does not warrant the cost of production. So, it looks like at this point KYB will be coming out with shocks (GR2) which are stiffer and much better than OEM but the only drawback to those is they are not adjustable.

ROI = Return On Investment
