Well i got my KYB AGX's and Pro-Kit this thursday (thank you Grant) and I installed them today, and Fiznat's awesome write up helped alot. ( http://www.nissaninfiniticlub....ber=1 )

but i have a few quesitons. First of all i accidently put the front right spring on with the letters being upside down, (didn't realise this intill they were on the car already) now does it matter whicch way the are? the fronts looked like they could be either way, unlike the backs. second of all i accidently forgot to put one of those orange gaskets back on in one of the back ones. does this really matter all that much? and is it worth taking out again to put it on?and finally, is there a way to see the rear dial wihtout taking off the tire? because i don't know what setting i'm at, lol

thnx in advance

the gasket doesn't matter for the front. but for the rear, I am not sure.

Many cars don't have them.

If I were you, just swap the proper springs back on and put the gasket back on. Might take you an hour to do so. Won't take a long time since this will be the second time you take out/put back them.

i'm going to put the gasket back on today, put i don't know about the springs when i looked at them putting them on, i didn't notcie any difference in which way would be top or bottom. can anyone tell me if there is a proper way or not?

YES THERE IS A DIFFERENCE!!! You need to fix the front asap. They are directional. There is a "flat" side to the springs. If you set it on the ground one way, and then flip it over to the other side, you'll see what I'm talking about. One side will sit up and down perfectly, the other will lean. I THINK that the flat side goes down, but I could be wrong. It's been a couple of years since I did mine.

Well i fixed both of the problems today, it took less time than i expected, except that like Fiznat i didn't take the carpeting out in the back, then i accidently dropped one of the lugnuts and had to take off the carpeting to find the lugnut

I did change the springs, but are you sure your not thinking of the back ones, i know in the back there was a flat spot which went on top, but on the fronts i didn't see a flat spot.

It's not somuch a flat spot a the way the coils were wound...
