Need to lower the GF's car - it's way too damn high.

Who makes springs for it, and what's your experience with them been?

Search noob! You think you can waltz in here and ask without flame like you own the site?

We have a B16 parts thread! zerothread/300259

Sportlines + Pro Kits are available. For the lady I'd suggest a Pro Kit.

Wouldn't the pro kit springs be a bit rough?

Pro Kits are softer than Sportlines and are designed for stock shocks.

Hm. For some reason I always thought it was the other way around.

Live and learn.....

The names are deceptive, since "Pro" is typically more hardcore than "Sport."

Really though, my Sportlines aren't all that rough. The only reason I generally recommend Pro Kits in this situation is because they don't blow stock struts - a recommendation that's compounded by the fact that there aren't any aftermarket struts available for the 07+ Sentra yet. That said, we've had some B16 owners put Sportlines on their stock struts and none have reported one blowing yet. We'll see if that's still the case next year.

You could roll with teins, i've got them on my g20 and while they ride a little on the rough side for all city driving throwing the car into a corner feels great.

i put Eibach sportlines on my 07 2.0S, the drop is amazing and totally changes the car, i also put a front lip to make it look more aggressive. the ride isnt sacrificed, i like being lower to the ground, and its not overly bumpy or bouncy. as for messing the struts up, i've been hearing a lot of stuff, some ppl say it does, some ppl say it doesnt, so im a bit worried but we'll see i guess.
