Luna... gorgeous car bro.

So did you have the calipers colored red just like the 40th calipers? I also like your rotors. What type are those?

As for the swift springs, those look great. So all you changed are the springs, then left the OEM shocks? Any foreseeable issue with this? Or is it perfectly acceptable to run aftermarket springs with stock shocks?
I heard that the Swift springs were designed & tested and therefore optimized on the Nismo, which does use different shocks than Sport version. However, there any many forum members with Sport that have these installed without any issues and have given great reviews. As for any potential long term issues, I don't know. Worst case is that the shocks don't last as long as they would on stock springs.
