Do any of you guys get a creaking noise in the front when going up/down a driveway?

Where is it coming from? I get some groans once in a while going diagonally up driveways when it is cold but that is from some body flex.

370Z JT · 01-30-2011, 03:09 PM

Sound seems to be from the front passenger wheel area.

christian370z · 01-30-2011, 03:13 PM

No, I definitely don't have that on my car. Does it happen all the time or just once in a while? Also, do you live some place cold?

Just installed my swift springs yesterday. Now the car still rides smooth, looks aggressive and handles awesome. It's def. worth every penny

I would recommend this springs to anyone.

I live in Cali, and I installed the springs while it was raining really hard. I believe I remember hearing some noises going up and down driveways. Now I dont hear anything even in the rain (I went through another storm with it). Anyways no more noises for me. I believe they need to break in to the tophats. The thing is I wasnt even sure if it was the spring that was the cause of the noise either.

How long have you had the springs installed now?

Woot!! Cant wait to get these babies on!!

I did how ever make this for my own comparisons.

Any updates on the Nismo Swift install?

How much of a drop can we expect on the Nismo with the swift springs?
If one were to put 20" wheels with the Swift springs, what would the ideal front offset be?

About 10 days.

Lots of good information in this post, thanks guys

I just picked up my 370 Friday and the first thing I noticed was wheel gap. Seems like Sprint gives a moderate drop and handling is improved, pretty much sold.

I guess the only thing would be seeing how I make it in and out of the garage stock before I go lower

I know amplified is sold out but did you check with kamispeed or 370ztune?

tsolin01 · 02-01-2011, 10:52 AM

All sold out from swift until March they all say. Kamispeed thought they had it in stock then called swift and all sold out.

Yup,

they're out of stock until March, but like I've been telling everyone else, you guys should start pre-ordering pretty soon I have a feeling they'll sell out before they arrive in march.
