Newbie from So Cal - Swift Springs

Hey Everyone, well, I've never been a member of any forum so this will be my first post of any kind. I purchased my Black 2012 G37 Journey sedan with the 18" wheel package about 3 months ago and I'm absolutely loving it.

I've learned so much by reading all of your posts and I feel the need to thank you. So far, i've only put on OEM splash guards (DIY) and I've tinted my windows 20% all the way around. My next mod will be new springs.

If your planning on lowering, you might be interested in this: I've been in contact with Leonard at Swift and they are working on a prototype set of springs for the G37 Rwd Sedan. I'll be working with him to test out these springs on my G. He informs me if all goes well, these springs may be available to the general public in a couple months. Wish me luck.

Keep us updated on the Swift springs. I had sport mach springs on my Subaru and absolutely loved them. I went with Eibachs on the G and they have a lot more noise than what I was expecting (compared to the swift).

I got the call from Leonard at Swift. The springs are in and my appointment is set for next week. I'll keep everyone updated.
