Hey all,

My friend with the 97 Sentra GXE just recieved some Arospeed coiliovers for his car on his B-day. His dad bought them for him, so he has to live with them, I guess. I know they SUCK, but I was wondering if anyone here knows any specifications on them. Like the rates for the springs, etc, compared to stock. I've already told them he should not install these on factory struts, as they will probably blow the struts eventually. Nobody here has these, do they? Hopefully it will ride okay with AGX's...?

Arospeed makes such ricer products...ugh, poor guy..

TIA,
Matt

I had just the regular Arospeed springs, and they were terrible. I swear the front was stock height, while the back was slammed!

However, I have an Arospeed muffler, and I'm quite pleased with it. It is very nice and quiet.

tell your friend the best thing for him to do is get rid of these springs--I ended up stuck with these and they are horrible. Ive got AGX gas shocks and Ive tried taping them up so the spring sits tighter-Ive tried raising the car up higher-and I still dont like the ride...

I just rode in my boy's corolla on DropZone coils which cost about the same as Arospeed and the ride was about 10 times better slammed on 16s.......... SO ill be making a swap very soon
