Well not gonna lie it is tempting especially with my new wheels on. My biggest concern is ride quality, I want pretty much the same as oem, and I've been told swift springs will be closer than eibachs.

I just went on the SWIFT website. The drop height and spring rates are now posted for X coupes. Maybe I'm a little late but I haven't been on there in awhile.

So much for keeping the forum current on the latest developments with the demo set. Apparently the measurements are in and the product is for sale...

Wow, just when I thought this thread was about to come to an exciting finish it just went kaboom!
At least there's now another spring option and maybe the trial & error ended up being the final piece that got this done

Yeah Idk if this is good or bad news, Im just confused as everyone else. Would be nice to get some input from Drkay. Swift said they would contact me when the springs were done, I never received any information. But the drop stats look nice.. I'm sure Leonard will be receiving a ton of calls tomorrow, if people trust the "research"..

So attached is stock height which shows the ridiculous wheel gap in the front. If a 1.3 inch drop is true I feel like there will still be significant wheel gap. Just a thought.

Yes, you are correct. Typically, Swift springs put the car "where it should have been from the factory". Eibach springs will give you the more aggressive lowered look with about a 1/2-3/4" of gap between the top of the tire and the bottom of the fender. H&R will slam your car and you will likely be tucking tires in the fender.

Here is my car with Eibach springs. You can see that there is still a little gap left and the car isn't slammed. Swift springs will almost certainly be higher than this based on their other offerings.

wow i didn't get to the forum in a couple days and a lot of posts. I was waiting for the final OK from SWIFT and I have now received it. The drop stats are what you see on the webpage -33 mm front and -25 mm rear. And I have been running on this drop for a long while. I got an alignment from Infiniti and can post the before and after as well. I am a family doc and currently at the office and therefore will post a review with pictures this evening. The car looks amazing; should have come like this from stock.
