Not sure if this is the correct forum but I am looking to begin some work on my 06 Sentra SER Spec-V this early spring. I am looking for good quality used parts.

1) Lowering Springs (approx. 1.5" drop around)2) Exhaust header3) Cold Air Intake

Just to get me started. Please send prices, photos, and condition.

I am in Ashland, MA 01721.

Thanks: Ed

You can try our Classifieds section after you get 10 useful (contributing) posts. Also check Ebay and Craigslist.

1.5" drop you'll most likely find Eibach Sportlines, for which you will need aftermarket struts (KYB GR2s or Koni Yellow inserts). If you can deal with an inch, Eibach Pro Kit springs will work with stock Spec V struts. There are a few other springs out there as well.

There are a few header and intake options as well. Try utilizing our search function to find more info on brands to help you make a decision.

good point but if you do the lowering springs with the stock shocks,they will blow in a couple of months.best thing to do is the whole enchilada and not deal with problems later.

Depends on which spring he put on the oem shock. I've got Tanabe NF210 on the oem shock for nearly 4 years and now they are up to be changed. They last a long time. If he get a spring which doesn't lower too much with a good spring rate (higher than oem of course), his oem shock can last long.

Any chance you can send me some photos of your ride with the Tanabi springs and the approx. drop in height you saw from stock springs?

Thanks: e3

I have heard of people that have had aftermarket springs with stock shock and have lasted them a good while more like years. I just did the eibach's with the KYB's in one shot so I didn't cause myself a headache lol

These pictures were taken nearly 4 years ago. Damn my car looked clean back then. By now, the car sit a little bit lower. The only downside of the NF210 is when you get rear passengers, the spring rate ain't high enough, the rear suspension bottom easily.
