when i turn my wheel all the way to the left or right, it makes a creaking sound from the spring. the shop didn't put my oem rubber piece back on the spring. i think thats what causing the creaking sound. here is a pic of my oem springs
i go back in friday for alignment and rear camber parts. should i tell the shop to put these rubber piece back on ? so it can eliminate the creak sound ?

Those OEM rubber pieces should be reused on the Swift springs.

I got off the phone with swift and they said it's not nessacry to put the rubber piece back on. What was making that creaking noise was in parked my handbrake was up and when I turned the wheel it made a noise but when hand break down it didn't . So obv the car moves a bit with hand break up it creates a friction.

Looks great, evil! A buddy and I put on Swifts, SPL rear camber arms, toe bolts, and lock out bolts over the weekend and I couldn't be any happier. Looks great, rides great, and handles great! Now I just have to find some wheels that I like and I'll be all set.

Congrats on a great job and a great looking Z!

Evil, sorry to bug you again with the questions, but do you feel the car sluggish after the spacer install? I ask because searching around i found some comments about how the extra weight of some spacers affect performance. obviously same applies when one puts heavier wheels on the car. Just wanted your input on these spacers specifically.

Also, you still have the stock 275 oem size tires in the back, right?

yes stock tire size, the car dosent feel sluggish , before the alignment and rear camber arms and toe bolts, car felt sluggish, after the wheel alignment and rear camber arms/ toe bolts, car feels tighter and it feels like it sits even better.
