[prlwhitecoupe]

Just dropped my car off at the dealer, my springs are here finally!!

Can't wait to see the difference in person now after all that I've been reading with the rest of you folks...and soon I'll be investing in the front strut and rear sway bars !

here are my springs

Went to the dealership for the install, did they run you quite a bit? I actually lowered the front of mine a while ago, and left the rear alone, just recently put the rear lowering springs on and i actually dont bottom half as much! But you will enjoy them, its a great touch.

thanks guys! And I haven't paid a cent yet. The original deal was NISMO and Eibachs for $500 installed. But he's hinting now that he won't charge me as much since I've waited all year for this stuff. So let's see. Just brought her home today and weather is ****, but the install was perfect, no noises, rides awesome, stiffer but not bouncy, and the handling is better, i love sitting lower as well! They also took care of the alignment. I'll take pics once its better outside and washed the car, but it's nothing you guys haven't seen before, im like one of the last people to get this done! I'm just glad it's done now.

I'm thinking spending the money I saved on the rear sway and front strut bar, but I also want the K&N intake, my filter needs replacing since I've hit almost 40,000 kms on my car already, sadly. So need to make a decision.

Here she is with eibachs installed and washed in the 0-2 degree celsius weather! Some of the water on the car turned to ice while I was drying it! Had to careful not to scratch the paint! I'm pretty sure my balls had icicles by the time I was finished ! lol...



I didn't bother dressing the tires so excuse them.

Nice! Looks like a normal car now

haha thanks, I've been saying the same thing....

I'm about to put my eibachs on today. Has anyone had problems with bottoming out or their aftermarket wheels rubbing? And will I have to be careful going over speed bumps?

WOW?! you got your dealership to install it for you? I asked my dealership if they would even honor the eibach pro kit, and they said they wont and will void my warranty? I was confused sinced there's a law stating that dealerships should not void the warranty unless the aftermarket part is the main cause of the problem?..

Also, did you guys get any clicking noises after you installed your springs? Me and my boys installed it on our own, and by the time i was driving, especially when i'm turning the wheel all the way to the right, i hear these clicking and popping noises? is this normal? i haven't gotten an alignment yet, but hopefully i can get one this coming week.. any ideas?

Hey man, yah I've been through alot with the dealership and let me give you some advice MAKE FRIENDS WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER. The only reason any of this stuff got done was because i was aggressive and made sure my problems were heard. I wrote nissan a letter and complained and they told the service manager to do something about it, before I went through legal means. So they kept fixing it under warranty and the service manager offered me some type of reimbursement, so I told him I wanted the springs and cat-back.

Patience is also a virtue, the guy took the whole damn year getting my NISMO and Eibachs in but it was worth it...frustrating but worth it...and he even apologized it took so long and he decided to not charge me for the parts and labor I bought the guy a bottle of crown for christmas lol.

Another suggestion would be to try another dealership, just go there for oil changes, get your service done and they will like you. But make sure you try to make friends with the service manager, only he can make things happen.

I also just got my K&N Intake and RSB yesterday I already made arrangements with the dealership to install them. Even though I can install the intake myself, I rather let them do it so there's no excuses tomorrow of voiding my warranty since they installed it themselves, same with the springs and cat-back.

Also, my springs haven't made any unusual noises thankfully, the install was perfect, they even did the alignment for me. Goodluck
