Just put some coilovers on my bro's car (JIC FLT-A2's)
Wow, I can't believe how much a difference coilovers make. It's like night and day. While cornering the car stays flat. No excessive body roll whatsoever. Heightened steering response and the handling has become so much more predictable. I HIGHLY recommend these coilovers
We've got the coilovers dialed in to the stiffest setting and the ride isn't all that bad. Well, not as bad as I thought it would be. I'm sure all of that will change when we put the 20"s BBS LM's on there
Here's a pic...

thats a coilover drop...reminds me of my Maxima on JICs.... (RIP)
but that also makes me wonder how bad it rides, because my maxima although the suspensions were totally different from each other, rode like total asscrack around the wonderful streets of NYC.
Then again, Cali roads own NYC roads....
can't wait to see the BBS' I had BBS on my old maxima as well

Supposedly the the JP kit should be here sometime this Nov. The wheels are a different story - kinda hard to find a reputable source for 20" LM's. Last vendor I spoke to sounded a bit hesitant to sell them to me... So I'm thinking of going through SPP for the wheels and hopefully I have better luck going through them.

Seize, I met the owner of this car at Waterfest. He is sponsered by BBS, he imported the wheels from Germany. Perhaps something could be arranged through a liason at BBS
