Thank you for the honest review. I was hoping that you had a lot of miles on the stock before the switch. It does take a lot of miles to really be qualified in making a comparison.
I had the stock and switched to the Nismo suspension. The car is amazing now and I don't have the intermittent hatred that I had. I am still trying to find an excuse to upgrade to coilovers but based on my semi-intelligent deduction, I do not think I would need c/overs for the type of driving I do. I will remain open-minded though. |

Though not professional, Rebuilding performance cars, which includes suspension and engine, and bikes is my hobby.
Having said so, I always screw around with different setups. It has always been very gratifying to 'upgrade' then upgrade again and again ..... |

![]() Would you say that color is about the same darkness as the stock brake calipers, lighter/darker?? Also, you said you were running 18mm spacers, front, was that on the rear too? I have 15mm all around, running 255/305 tire set up, you think that will be ok? Thanks ![]()

![]() But, trust me, you will like the coils better. Quote:
I am now running 15mm spacers in the front and thinking of going with 15mm in the rear. The 18mm was a tad bit too agressive and some rubbing occured. The 13mm is good, but I think I want it a tad more aggressive in the rear. But, my spacer sizes can be drastically different than yours unless you are running the OEM Nismo wheels and not the S-Tune ones from a dealer. |

![]() The sample I picked up from the powder coater is slightly lighter then the calipers, it was Cardinal GR-02. My car is Platinum Graphite, so I just want a slightly darker shade for contrast. I think I will cruise over to the Nissan dealer and check out the GTR wheels for comparison. Thanks ![]() Those Teins are definitely a consideration for a future mod, I just have Eibach springs on right now, but looking to get about 1/2 more drop.

BTW, just take a look at a DMG GT-R...09, of course. You will see the contrast in color that would be similar to yours if you painted the wheels K11. |
