needs to be lowered Still hawt thoughskytime much?? it's another offroad 240sx, courtesy of the NiCO crew!

That reminds me, in one of my 03 SCC magazines there's a sentra that rallies, and apparently NiCO is a sponsor, because our logo is on the side of it, and is shown quite a bit...Cool.

yea i know it needs to be lowered, but i can't cut the springs till i get new front struts. Go over a bump and you bounce for a half mile!

Thats sooooo wrong, if your getting new struts why not upgrade to some real springs for $100-200 instead of cutting stock 15 year old springs?

i doubt that advance auto sells lowering springs worth buying. seriously, check the classifieds for some used lowering springs before you cut yours. cut springs are about as safe as unprotected sex while carrying automatic weapons.

Yeah really, unless you happen to know a mechanic who knows how to cut springs before lowering springs were thought of. There's a method to actually cutting them properly.

yea there's a guy that has been racing 240s on circle track forever, he said he would do it for me. but yea before i do anything i need to get some front struts. I'm thinkin "gr2"s what do ya think? or whould i go with "agx"s?

Post by **sensibleS13driver** » Thu Jul 21, 2005 7:23 am

lower it right, dont cut the springs!!!!!!!

that muffler is bleh, eww, gross.

if you cut springs on macpherson struts the front springs can and will fall off their seat over a big enough bump, there is no way to do it right, it is all bad.

Post by **eds13** » Thu Jul 21, 2005 7:53 am

I know the can is terrible. I need to put it under the bumper more then it would look better. I totally disagree about the springs falling off the struts

Cutting springs is just a bad idea anyway. Lowering isn't really what's going to be the best performance enhancing aspect of good springs. I wish they made more springs that didn't lower the car very much and had a stiffer spring rate, but alas they do not.

Your wheels look a bit odd, though. With your car being black, the tires blend into your body and it sort of makes your car look like it's got wagon wheels on it or something.

Post by **eds13** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 2:52 pm

for your info the car is dark blue and i don't like your wheels either

Cutting your springs is going to be a good way to ruin your new shocks quickly too. I have a set of Eibachs Sportlines I'll sell you. New in box. $150 + shipping. I'll can post a pic if you're interested.

Post by **eds13** » Mon Jul 25, 2005 5:25 pm

thanks for the offer but like i say " I'm broke" $150 isn't bad either. I'm trying to get another 240. $1200 with intake, rims, spacers, header, and some huge spark plug wires. so i'm tryin to figure out a way to $1200. Don't worry guys about the cut spring I just wait till i have the money and get my self something decent
