  1. Good choice! I have the exact same set up on my 03 and couldn't be happier with it.
  2. Actually I can't really say no difference, It definitely gave it more of a truck like feel, but I didn't feel a dramatic difference in the ride.
  3. Here ya go...I actually posted this pic a few weeks ago. For the specs i did: 1) HD up front and MD in back 2) KYB GR2 all around 3) I got 2.5" inches around but a trip up to the cottage with a crew and tons in the trunk settled it to 2" around. Only about 800km so far. 4) No pop at all. 5) I personally felt no difference, maybe a little stiffer on bumps 6) Very satisfied with the choice. 7) 16x9 ATX wheels 4.5" of backspace, 275/70 tires. Awesome choice on the coils man you'll be very happy with them. Good luck with the build when it comes time.
  4. Here's some pics of the lift. The first image is before the lift, everything else is after. Before: 1 After: 2 3 4
  5. Yeah i'm hoping to get some up tonight, its been raining in my area the past week so havent had a chance to post any.
  6. Thanks man, Yeah I was glad too didn't want to have to go through the hassle of returning them. I did the rears as well, KYB's all around and the HD OME coils up front and MD in the back. Ended up getting 2.5" of lift all around!
  7. Well I got everything installed on friday, had a slight issue with the monroe mounts as the mechanic didn't use the provided spacers and so there was a gap between the nut and mount resulting in it clunking, just one thing to watch if you're looking to use the monroes. But got that fixed yesterday. The struts worked out perfectly just had to use a zip tie to hold down that abs sensor. But the pathy feels a heck of a lot better with the new shocks and OME coils. Hoping those monroe mounts and bearings will hold up!
  8. yeah I'm really taking a chance with these monroes, but the shop I am using to install the coils and such say they're great and should last me, plus they were about 40 bucks cheaper a side then what my local nissan dealerships quoted me on OEM mount and bearing. But I will definitely keep posted on how they hold up. Autopartsway will take them back, but I know i'll have to wait well over a week before i get the right ones and I'm to impatient haha. I just want to get these coils on! But i contacted KYB and they pretty much told me the only difference between the struts is the location of the ABS sensor bracket which isn't that big of a deal, the guy installing them told me he can come up with something to hold the wire down.
  9. ...Damn. Well I got the strut mounts from monroe, it also came with that spacer you mentioned so I guess these mounts shouldn't be a problem with these struts.
  10. hey guys So I got all the parts to do my OME lift on my pathy. As I was looking through the parts I noticed autopartsway sent me struts with part #'s 335030/335031 which according to KYBs website is for the 98-01 r50s and my 2003 needs 335032/335033. My question is are there any differences between these struts? can I just use what autopartsway sent me? Feedback would be much appreciated as I want to get this stuff installed asap. thanks
  11. Don't mean to intrude..but I am curious of this too. I have the All-Mode transfer case also and want to install the manual hubs, I have read some have had issues with the 4wd light coming on anyone had these issues?
  12. Nope no one stopped, it was a busy intersection too, everyone just kept drivin by.
  13. Definitely a good thing no one was hurt! I couldn't agree with you more on this. I had my front bumper hit a few weeks ago when a guy ran a red when I was making a left hand turn. He noticed last second what he did and hit his brakes as did I but still hit me. I had my brother with me which I felt was my best witness, but insurance said I could not use him and the insurance told me the guy said in his police report that I ran the red (F@@@ing A@#hole) so i ended up having to pay my deductable. I had the guys phone # and reemed him out, unfortunately he is unlisted so I have no idea where he lives... Anyways gotta love how the A##holes of the world get away with it.
  14. Just wondering for those with the OME HD coils up front if you have noticed any front end or tire wear issues. i remember reading earlier that this might be an issue if you dont have the sufficient weight up front. Also does anyone find the ride too harsh? I think i would prefer the MD set up all around but I want the pathy to sit level and I am afraid i won't like the way it sits with just the MD coils all around. If you have any opinions I'd like to hear them. Thanks
  15. I appreciate the useful responses, I was just curious to know if anyone has actually tried that size on their pathys before I get stuck with 4 tires that won't fit.
