The secrets out.. I don't know how to pull into driveways!
But in all seriousness, the real issue with my fiances driveway(besides the angle) is that there are always multiple cars in the driveway that take away my proper entry and exit angle. |

I run the stock sizes with 15 mm spacers all around (on Swift Spec-R and Konis next week when I return from a business trip).

I understand Nick when I back out of my driveway I scrape much worse because I do not have the angle I want but it is only those deflectors.
Hey onze happy sunday.

I went with Koni because I have used them on several cars, starting with my 1967 Datsun 1600 Roadster I bought in 1978. In my opinion, there is no better shock. My wife's 2001 Echo even has Koni Sport-D on it (I got a smoking deal on them from a Koni dealer and friend). The Swifts I got because I wanted a mild drop and better springs. I almost went Eibach, but heard from a few 370 guys about the Swift and their performance compared to Eibachs. They were right. BTW -- I also have Hotchkis sway bars. I considered coil-overs (Bilstein) but, again in my opinion, coil-overs are a bit of a hassle for street use and I do not track my car. I hope this helps.

Seriously, if I really needed to get it off, I could do it. When I changed to a Nismo bumper, I gave a buddy of mine my EVO-R cf fang cover. It took some patience to get it off, but it came off. My biggest fear is my new $600 spoiler flying off on the freeway one day. It's not going anywhere right now.

It's freakin raining at Daytona Hey Nick just noticed how unimpressive the shifter area is in the GTR. I think it needs a better look. My 7AT is a better look.

I'll pull the Z outside. That'll be sure to do it.

The radar don't look good. It looks like after it quits the rain will come back in about an hour.
