Problems

Refer to the installation section in the FAQ section. The only problem I came across was compressing the shocks to reconnect them to the brake components(and also found out that all my bushings had exploded, must replace with Nismo units!).

Tips

I used a small 1 ton jack to compress the shock. Loosely tighten the upper mount bolts and use the jack to lift the shock and spring into place.

Thoughts

The RSR Down springs are very good in quality and are perfectly matched, front and rear (are about 1 inch from the fender). This is about as low as you would want to go(i have the stock tires). Ride is what you would expect it to be with a lowered vehicle, but the improvement in handling is worth a bumpy ride! Oh yeah i know it is expensive but you should replace the shocks and get the alignment checked to take full advantage of the new suspension components.

Other

Great price and quality, would of liked a RSR sticker though.
