It's about time, gutting the Nismo suspension.

Just got off the phone with Charles @Powertrix. I will be doing the Swift spring upgrade for sure. Ordering parts, oh what fun.

Finally, the Swift's just got off the boat...LOL Order has been placed with Powertrix. You guys on the West coast are lucky to have Charles so close.

Holy crap, my front swaybar and rear toe bolts showed up today. My swift springs showed up last week while I was at Zdayz. Suspension is going on this 3 day weekend. I gotta do it before June 27th, that is my neck surgery date.

Amen to that. Dr said I should be back to work in 3-4 weeks.

You doing the surgery that we talked about? Like my brother's?

Yes, I have 2 areas of concern between C3/C4 and C6/C7. The issue is if the Dr. fixes both he said he would also have to do the 2 in between the other 2 for a total of 4. Due to my areas of severe pain he thinks that C3/C4 is causing all the issues so we have elected to only do that one and see what happens. I have got my fingers crossed that this will cure everything. I don't even want to think about having 4 done.

Rusty · 05-24-2016, 10:55 PM

Hopefully it works out, and you get a nice little pain free vacation.

Spooler · 05-29-2016, 11:30 PM

Well, I didn't get anything done yet. I was hurting Saturday and it was raining today. I will try again next weekend. I am on the hook for mowing grass tomorrow....LOL

Rusty · 05-30-2016, 09:56 PM

Every time there is a change in the weather. You may hurt.

So get accustom to it.

I did.

Ape Factory · 05-30-2016, 10:27 PM

Curious why you're changing over to Swift springs on the Aragostas? Are you going with a different rate?

OptionZero · 05-31-2016, 12:32 PM

Sounds like he switched to powertrix?

Spooler · 05-31-2016, 01:02 PM

I am replacing the Aragosta springs with Swift springs. 12k front and 11k rear. They will go on my Aragosta coilovers. Swift
springs will give a better ride quality (Coils are farther apart with less spring bind when compressed) and last much longer at the proper rates.
