Cusco Zero-2's installed (pics)

[flohtingPoint]

For 2 months now I've been digging for a good set of track suspension. I was waiting on a shipment of Tein RA's to come in, but aparently my order was lost (I wasnt charged). Finally I gave that up and started looking elsewhere, which is how I stumbled upon the Zero-2's. I called everywhere and got quotes and shipping time lenght, and http://www.vividracing.com offered the best time (1 week, free shipping), and best price ($1800). Jacky was a most helpful salesman and helped expedite this order.

I got the suspension sooner than a week, more like 5 days. The day it came in, it was installed. The installation took around 3 hrs, minus the time spent looking for some new hardware (finding fine thread metric bolts in BFE texas is nearly impossible). There was nothing difficult about the installation, unless you count having to bang out my old rear shocks with a rubber mallet due to them being bonded at the bottom.

After installation, I took it out for a quick test drive. Even with super jacked up camber it handled like a dream. I can say that the $1800 dollar price tag was well worth it.

For now, my car will stay at this ride height, until I find a reason (other than it being visually pleasing) to do so. If I wanted a uber JDM tyte low rider, I'd have saved myself $1400 and gotten some springs. My car is only for functionality, and will never be a show piece.

Now, since 90 percent of you wont read the above anyway, on with the pics.

I read the whole thing. 1800 dollars is about right for a quality set of coilovers, glad you like.

[cdiesel12]

but lowering isnt just for looks. center of gravity is in there too.

of course lowering it too much is just ridiculous.

Ride was dropped about 2 inches for that very purpose. As I see it right now, this ride height seems to be fine =)

@240SXedUp: Do what I did. Save. Thats 2 months pay right there.

don't forget to get it realigned to get the best out of that drop.

Funny story. After I found my final ride height (see picture), I took it into Sears to get my alignment done up. I had gotten tires there earlier this year, so I had a warrenty on my alignment. We did up the paperwork on it and the techs went to work on my HS13. While sitting at the taco bell in the mall, I got bored so I started reading my warrenty info. Aparently, if you make any form of suspension modification yourself, your warrenty is void. Regardless of void warrenty, the folks at Sears hooked me up with it for free anyway cause they were Nissan fans.
