Time for a drop, buddy!


But in all seriousness, the car is looking sweet... the mudflaps definitely were a good pickup and i think you were right to go to the black vents.
Yea, the wheel gap kills me too. Ive been looking into springs, but having a hard time convincing myself i dont want coilovers....

I feel like springs are definitely what i want/need now, but i dont wanna end up going back and getting coilovers later

also waiting for a little more fittings on the MRs because most springs were marketed toward GSRs and some MRs are having fitment issues. Eibach doesnt even have their Pros available for MRs. I'm pretty sure SWIFT does, but i dunno if theyve been put on an MR yet. (They claim they are the same for GSR and MR)

I'd go with SWIFT long before I went near Eibach... maybe it's because i have the feeling from the DSM game that Eibach's setups were geared more toward aesthetics and less toward handling.

I certainly agree that you might want to hold off for a while and let other people be the guinea pigs for the new parts under development. I don't think, however, that you can go wrong buying springs initially and eventually swapping to coilovers...you'll be able to resell evo springs in a heartbeat so there's no issue with dumping them later....

I have the eibach prokits on the sentra. They are the second to best spring you can run on the sentra aside from the tanabe GS10s or whatever which weren't available at the time. Prokits are actually a really good spring meant for handling. The sportlines are equivalent to the S-techs so avoid them at all costs. I have to say i have been very happy with the swifts. And I totally agree with dave, you can EASILY dump the springs when/if you decide to coilovers. I would say though this area is not coilover friendly and i personally wouldn't run them.
