Right now my B14 has KYB-GR2's and some black Eibach lowering springs.... it sucks. It is such a rough ride, and loud from in the cabin. Also once a friend told me that it felt like the rest of the car was separating from the suspension while we were driving on a bumpy road.

I'm going k-sport when the car comes out of storage. Softer stuff offered from JGY and it should be good for these roads I hope.

I myself am looking to do Ksports probably in the near future on my 240.

I have tein basics on my ek though and they are pretty good.

You think your special or something with all your bushings changed???

What does everyone think about solid subframe bushings?

Yeah I'm special but not like you. Your short bus special!! Hahahaha
I'd go with the polyurethane brushings like I have. Solid metal ones are less forgiving and you feel and hear the road alot more. Helps with wheel hop too.

A little to much for you? I love mine but it is a little odd in a parking lot when they all think your cars falling apart...lol

With the narrow roads and Sharp turns we have here it more than embarrassing to have it sounding like somebody is beating my car with a sledge hammer driving slow. I have a j30 diff to swap in for now since I do more street driving than anything else at this point.

I think your exaggerating a little. It's not that bad. I sometimes just drive slowly in tight circles just so people can hear it...lol

so...about suspensions:

- my L31 altima is on stock suspension now, and I H.A.T.E it...seriously.

- I spoke to Jason about a Ksport kontrol pro setup, and I'm gonna go with that soon.

- my experience with a lowered car left me spoiled...I had to run a COMPLETELY custom setup on my G20 years back. Jason and I installed it together, and it rolled nicely (Ground control lowering springs, KYB/AGX adjustable dampers).

- Im worried that I wont be able to get nearly the same results with this car, but we will soon find out.

The Ksport suspension is a very good suspension setup. All the height adjustability is there and they have 36 way adjustable dampers so you can set them up however you like them.

ShamROCK

Yeah...thats pretty much why im gonna get em.

I dealt with someone at KYB, and they don't want to make the AGX for this car...something about not being able to make a decent return for the R&D. I gave up on them, because for a major manufacturer to be that close minded about making a product that is in demand, then I don't need to try to give them any business.

So without their struts, the only option for my altima is coilovers. There are literally 3 choices...and my good friend Jason sells one of them.

Sooooo...decision made! Now I need to try to talk him into a crazy install party...hmmmm.
