Don't waste your time installing the Nismo springs on your car. It was bone jarringly stiff and terrible. I'm sure it's great on the race track though! When I installed them on my base/sports it raised my front .5" to 28" (wheel arch to ground, was 27.5 before). I went with Swifts and have been extremely happy with them. They are softer when driving around town, but really stiffen up when you drive hard. You can see why in the coil design. The close coils for comfort, and the larger gap for performance. I wouldn't discount them for street/track use they are a great spring.
