    Just springs is fine. 08" and 05" does sound like not much. I don't want to go down very much any way I just want stiffer less body roll. My tires scrubbing and brake and CV joint stress I can live without so I think I have what I want and after driving a micra cup car on the track last summer I kind of know what to expect from my springs.

    What is the drop in your Nismo springs, and what is the cost.

    Don't know yet. Don't know. I got them at the track in a barter deal for helping out.

    To each their own, but after lowering my first car (VW Golf) with just lowering springs (Eibach Sportline) I've never done it without also upgrading the shocks/struts also. Just way too bouncy. That said, I haven't sat in a similar setup in a Micra.

    Why are so many of the springs out there different drops from front to rear, can't find any for the Micra that's 1 1/4 for front and back..

    So I just talked to the parts guy at Midway Nissan in Whitby and he said that the Micra and Versa note share many similar parts struts, springs, etc so if you find a nice set of note lowering springs pick them up and they'll give you a nice stiff ride!!
