So I'm pretty overwhelmed. I really want to get some swift springs with spacers but I really don't understand what else I need to get with it. I don't know anything about this really except I know that I really want that look, and it sounds like the ride is improved with the swifts so thats a plus.

After doing some reading it sounds like I just need to figure out how and where to get SPL camber arms w/SPC toe bolt rear setup, and also what exactly that is because I don't know. Is there anything else I'm gonna need to get besides that? Id really like to get it all taken care of at the same time.

Sounds like after about a week Ill need to get an alignment. Will the springs last a while? What about my oem shocks? How will I know when its time to replace them? Im sorry for the dumb questions this is just something I really want to do but feel really overwhelmed. Also I do have fast intentions exhaust, does anyone have problems with the cans scraping??
Thanks!!!

You pretty much got it. Kamispeed is a good source for all the things on your list. Give them a call and they'll make sure you get what you need. Then drive a couple hundred miles and get aligned. I suggest dead zero front toe, 1/16" total rear toe in, with somewhere around -1.75 camber. You'll love it the look and handling.

You're right on with your list of parts, but you might want to consider picking up these too - https://www.z1motorsports.com/g37_37...oducts_id=4862.

The springs should last for a long, long time. Also, shocks these days tend to last for a long time, so I don't think you need to worry about them, unless you regularly drive on some gosh-awful roads.

Others will chime in, I'm sure, regarding your other questions. Good luck and go for it. You won't regret going with Swifts. I smile every time I look at my car now. It's the way Nissan should have made it to begin with!

So talked to Kamispeed and they gave me this list of everything needed to go along with my springs.
-Swift Springs Spec R
-Rear Camber Links
-SPL Lockout Kit
-SPC Rear Camber Bolts
-H&R Spacers
Does this sound like everything? Will I be able to get this installed all at once? Or should I get the springs and spacers done first? Also will rubbing be an issue at all with my stock tires and rims? Will I be able to drive normally with this set up? I know it wouldn't be crazy lowered, just wondering whats up haha. I don't wanna have to drive extra slow all the time.
Also I don't know what size spacers to get. I don't want my tires sticking out really. I just want it kinda flush. So would 20mm in the front and 25mm in the back be too much? Would 15/20 be better? Thanks everyone for answering all my lame embarrassing questions.
