Oh okay that is good to know. So its slightly lower, when you take the pictures can you get some before and after pictures in there. Not to change the subject but maybe a GOOD video of the Stillen exhaust now that it has settled in. I have yet to hear a video of the exhaust when the car is just started. They all start with the car already on. I would appreciate that will help me choose between Greddy (wheen it comes out) and Stillen. Thanks

This is a Eibach Group Buy thread... why would you ask questions about exhaust here? thats why you wont get a good answer... the forums are split.. people with exhaust knowledge will look in the exhaust section... just an fyi

I asked Dangeris who has the Stillen exhaust. I asked him for the video of the exhaust in this thread because he said he would be taking pictures of his rims when he gets them. So its kind of a why your taking pictures of the rims could you take an exhaust video type thing. Seems convenient to take pictures and a video at the same time. Plus I was initially asking a springs question in regards to what he said about his springs being settled after two weeks. Not that I really needed to explain myself

Well this is what I posted in the Suspension Discussion.http://forums.altimas.org/zerothread/323001



Not sure if you can see or enlarge the b4 and after alignment image but the rear was way out, the front camber and caster were fine but the front toe was out too.

I was originally planning on doing the alignment at around 100 miles following the spring install, but still haven't done it. I wanted to get on the firestone lifetime alignment plan, but when I called they said they couldn't do it. I was told they don't have the specs for lowered vehicles and couldn't accurately align it. So I called another firestone place and they said sure but we can't really warantee anything.

Anyone recommend another alignment place? I'm a little hesitant going to a company that passes out different answers at different locations.

Exactly how recommended is the alignment following the Eibach install? I've got about 400 miles on her since and she drives just a straight and smooth as the day I drove her off the lot. I haven't noticed any abnormal tire wear anything unusual. Also, I kind of recall a thread about one guy that had to go to 2 or 3 different places cause it drove worse after the alignment.

Any thoughts?

I got mine aligned @ 100 miles. I went to my local NTB where I know the alignment guy that's been there 30 years. He was off the first day I went, so I just waited for him the next day. My car felt normal too but if you can't see the alignment specs, the rears were out about 1/2" where the fronts wern't too bad. I do want new wheels and tires but not at the cost of burning the OEMs off.

i probably was the one you read about it. I regret touching the orignal alignment, they did it right after replacing the springs an that was my mistake. They did a bad job and did honor the warranty the very next day. So i went to the dealer and got it done for half of the money (believe it or not) the service advisor was very cool and told me just to tip the guy that does the alignment and he would not charge me and close the ticket. I was there next to the guy that did the alignemnt and showed me the previous errors. Still has a little drift to the right. I think no one out there has the factory specs for the Altima coupe on their machines, not even the dealer, i noticed he used the specs for Altima (that's the 4 door 2007). so if your car rides like from factory, DONT touch it until you feel something different and be sure the machine has the alignemnt update specifically for the coupe.
