I do not want the front to sit a tad higher than the rears. I actually like the rear to be a little higher. If this happens to me I am just going to get a rear spring spacer and call it a day. Tired of effing around!!!
I do not want to spend $1000 on coils to fix this problem... 
As far as cutting coils. I have dropped a 300ZX, a Infiniti G35 and there was no need to cut bump stops at all. The stiffer springs will prevent the shock from bottoming out.
And as a side note, my Swift springs were attempted to be delivered but nobody was home to sign, so now I have to wait! UGH!!!! I know I know, I should of taken the day off for this EPIC MOMENT!  |
yah, ive noticed the nismo does seem to ride taller in the front. did you try comparing the perch location between your s-tune and stock?
i did my G35C's suspension a few times 5-6yrs ago and i cant remember if i replaced or re-used or cut the bumpstops when i did the d-specs + eibachs. this is why i asked.
anyway the bumpstop is a pretty major part of the suspension when you're putting heavy loads while cornering. some manufactures give you new bumpstops for some of their kits, some tell you to cut it, some forget to tell you to cut it and you later find out you definitely need more stroke.
