I have never seen anyone's axle snap from the Eibach springs that are sold and they are around the same drop. I am not sure if the Megan springs are so weak that with the way too low drop they, could snap an axle. I have never tried them, never will. They are utter shit, cheap ass under performing junk. More than likely half ass copied from some other company that also has no clue as to build a performance spring. No matter how cheap I would not run them. I would rather cut a couple coils off of the stock springs as it would more than likely be safer than the Megan springs. I am not 100% sure that your axle snapping is due to the springs or a combination of a weak aftermarket axle or an axle already damaged finished off by the over lowering of the suspension.

My buddy that had a b13 cut his springs pretty low. Like civic low and he never had an issue. I don't even beat on the car. He had his done up and would race it daily. Burn outs daily as well. This was back in 02-03. I was going to install the oem front springs cause I still have them. But my sai and camber are perfect believe it or not. So that's why it's hard to believe, although they are not the best springs, they are the cause of the axle not fitting flush as suppose to and leaking axle grease. Axle seals are still good. But the axle is far enough to let leak the fluid out of the tranny.

Maybe it's just my luck and it is the wrong axle. AGAIN!!!

I'll figure it out soon. Or if anything leave it like that seeing I'm going to be looking into an ser p10/11 parts car soon to swap it all into my 4dr.

You missed a Sticky and the entire Information Library.

Your concerns about "opinions" are thoroughly addressed in the opening "Forward" of The Suspension Thread.

Do you think that Stickies and Information Library materials are just some random dudes opinion?!? No, they are solid factual text references to educate you. That is why the were approved by the Staff and made into a Sticky or placed in the Information Library.

Quoted for truth.

By your glaring and readily apparent ignorance, you did NOT read anything, or your reading comprehension is equal to that of your average garden snail.

Agreed. The Megans suck. Which you would have known in advance if you had bothered to do any significant research.

I spent hundreds and hundreds of hours, over a time-frame of well over a year, to compile the Suspension Thread. THAT is all I should have to do for the good and education of this entire community.

I answered your motherfucking stupid as fuck, completely ignorant, questions in full. Much, much better than anyone else in this thread. Including links to help your sorry, miserable, worthless ass figure out what you could not figure out, because of your unmistakeable ignorance.

I was polite, to the point, and provided you with all the information you need. You don't like it? Go suck a hobo's taint, or better yet, leave this motherfucking forum and never, ever return. You will NOT be missed, and I will still be here, long after you are gone.

Ignorance? Do you understand the definition you fucking moron?

It means you do not know about the subject being discussed. I am ignorant about turbo-charging a motor. I am ignorant about space flight. I am ignorant about how to bake a motherfucking wedding cake.

Ignorant | What is the Definition of Ignorant? | Dictionary.com

ig·no·rant
   [ig-ner-uhnt] Show IPA adjective
1. lacking in knowledge or training; unlearned: an ignorant man.

2.lacking knowledge or information as to a particular subject or fact: ignorant of quantum physics.

3. uninformed; unaware.

4.due to or showing lack of knowledge or training: an ignorant statement.

You are ignorant about how to correctly modify a B13/14 suspension.

Ignorant does not mean stupid, it is NOT an insult whatsoever, never has been. Although you have now demonstrated your absolute and all-encompassing stupidity as well. Nice going.

Ignorance means a subject that you have not learned yet. Nothing more, nothing less Brainiac.

Now you are flying directly in the face of the facts presented in The Suspension Thread

Which means you are a hard-headed, stupid-as-fuck, miserably stubborn, dumb-ass. You should leave the "figuring" to someone that is not an ignorant son-of-a-bitch.

You're "sure" huh? Well if you are sure, keep the Megans, and just change struts. It'll be great Mr. Mensa. Please, by all means, do so.

Go re-read the Suspension Thread Einstien. It's in there. You are either a lying sack of shit about your so-called research, or your reading comprehension sucks monkey balls.

You can learn from your costly mistakes or from reading someone elses actual expertise. Depends on the density of your skull.

You can fuck yourself sideways child. You NEVER got flamed. Yet.

You have thin skin, obviously thinking you should be spoon-fed information that is already posted, and you apparently think that everyone owes you a super-polite-kumbaya-singing-lets-all-hold-hands answer to all your IGNORANT and lazy questions.

You do NOT get to decide nor dictate how kind folks are going to help you out you presumptuous, pompous ass-hat.

I've personally been more help to you (and to every single member of this forum) with your suspension than all the other respondents to this ass-hat, unresearched, thread you started combined.

I already tried that. I gave you two (2) links, and MY thread, the one with all the motherfucking answers by experts, was already posted for your benefit.

Who called you illiterate? I called you ignorant, which is a simple statement of fact.

Leave the thinking to folks that are good at it.

Your buddy is simply the blind and ignorant leading the blind and ignorant.

You need to relax on your jack-ass defensiveness, jumping to incorrect conclusions, and your pissy, uptight, attitude.

It's not done yet Snookums. Nor do you get to decide when it is done. In fact, I'm looking past just well-done, to third-degree, blackened, flame broiled.

You not understanding is getting to be par for the course with you. You acted like a defensive, stupid, delusional little prick, blabbering that pie-hole of yours. Anytime you open a thread, everyone gets to chime in. You got out of hand, you do not get to close the subject moron. It will keep going till I am done, and I'm just getting started. Barely warmed up yet.

You don't like the way I help you? You did not read and/or comprehend The Suspension Thread? You got your manties pulled up your sandy crack?

Too fucking bad you worthless, ungrateful, snot-nosed, presumptuous piece-of-dogshit.

Brilliant. Like a rice-gorged lemming, right off the cliff.

Those Megan springs are atrocious. P.T. Barnum would have loved you.

Keep blaming it on luck if that makes you feel better.

Nothing like some painful, expensive, time-wasting trial and error. You just keep on "figuring" and "thinking" and "bein' sure." You're doing terrific Chuckles.

no I never once thought that these facts were from "random dudes"

I actually didn't miss any sticky thread

"Fuck you, you whining, simpering, lazy, lying sack of thin-skinned shit."
;-) Indeed Mr. Tough guy I'm neither "lazy" and a *"lying sack of thin-skinned shit." lazy is a person that sits around, does nothing and expects everything handed to them. I attend MTTI, as well as work and do everything on my own for my self. Again, you should learn to talk an educate your self about a person rather than assuming there in fact "lazy, simpering, whiny, sacks of shit." Proves the fact that you are Indeed a "dick." and since when has, pointing out the fact that a person feels disrespected about how you approached them, considered "whiny?" please do tell me.*

As for the struts/shocks prematurely failing, As for this, I was already advised about this by Hosmer prior to your unnecessary 2cents. I must have missed the "gr2's suck horribly thread" If it makes you feel better I do apologize I missed that part in the suspensions thread. Kind of hard to fully catch 100% everything when 1)this "lazy ass" has his beautiful kids running around playing in the background, being loud, while daddy is online and the wife is asking at the same time "Papi, what do you want for dinner" 2) if not at school I'm working and on my day off I try to squeeze in the time to come to this forum and gain some wisdom. Cause I'm sure you weren't born the "suspension goddess" with out doing research and asking questions, whether it be a "stupid" "ignorant" question or not!

"By your glaring and readily apparent ignorance, you did NOT read anything, or your reading comprehension is equal to that of your average garden snail."

I actually passed k-12 pretty good with no issues. Math skills weren't so great but in reading and comprehension... I was pretty good at it. So stop with your assumptions and educate your self about a person before making your self look 100% stupid running your mouth as you are doing.*

"Agreed. *The Megans suck. *Which you would have known in advance if you had bothered to do any significant research."

which indeed I actually did read about it, but at the time(and still the same now) the money wasn't all there to buy $500.00 agx's and $330.00 hyperco or RM's(what ever the price is on them) and to be frank I'm pretty sure the springs, although shitty, are not the issue of the axle seeing that my camber and SAI are perfect(miraculously) SAI was 50.4/50 and the camber indictor was almost perfect. Toe is the only thing off. Toe is pointing like this "\ /"*

"Go fuck yourself sideways sonny. *I don't have to play patty cakes with you and lead you along by the nose while answering your ignorant questions all covered with sugar and honey on melba-toast."

I have a beautiful wife that fucks me day and night so no need for me to "fuck myself sideways" I'm not a fan of toast nor honey, but sugar w/ my coffee is great. Make it extra extra. And as for the patty cake game. I'm truly not a fan of it, only time that it is "played" is with my daughters. Thanks for the offer though.*

"I spent hundreds and hundreds of hours, over a time-frame of well over a year, to compile the Suspension Thread. *THAT is all I should have to do for the good and education of this entire community."*

And SEAN B!!! I truly, greatly, appreciate your time and effort for the sticky!! (no sarcasm intended) 99% of the info on this forum is pretty good.*

"I answered your motherfucking stupid as fuck, completely ignorant, questions in full. *Much, much better than anyone else in this thread. *Including links to help your sorry, miserable, worthless ass figure out what you could not figure out, because of your unmistakeable ignorance."

If I had asked "Megan springs? Are they shitty? Please help me out?" Then fine. That maybe an out right "stupid question" which really there isn't such a question. I guess I am "worthless" seeing I do not come from a wealthy family(if you did, more power to you.) I am not a "sorry, miserable person." I'm actually a pretty funny, laid back, chill guy til someone thinks he can just be disrespectful and be rude. I will not let anyone disrespect me and me stay shut about it. You were being a dick, and still are btw, and I just pointed it out to you.

"Eat a hot steaming, fresh dropped, shit sandwich fuckhead."

I'm all set with that, I prefer a number 9 from d'angelo's

"I was polite, to the point, and provided you with all the information you need. *You don't like it? *Go suck a hobo's taint, or better yet, leave this motherfucking forum and never, ever return. *You will NOT be missed, and I will still be here, long after you are gone."

If that was "polite" holy shit you are indeed a dick. "Go suck a hobo's taint" you say, my friend you are, and must be, one ignorant fuck. Lol, I point out the fact that you were being a dick and rude, and I get "suck a hobo's taint" "you lazy miserable sack of shit" "eat shit" bla bla bla. And I'm the whine bag? I'm the "ignorant sack of shit" damn!! I clearly see who's the "ignorant dick"
here. SEAN B. And no I will not "leave this forum" I truly don't care if "I'm not missed." did I register here for "SEAN B?" no sir I didn't. Sure I might of gotten out of hand by pointing out and calling you a dick. But apparently you surly are one buddy! And if I'm an "Ignorant, lying, miserable, sack of shit, etc" then my friend, you are by far worse than all that. I guess you take meds I read somewhere on this thread? If so, take them and chill out. Thank god I'm healthy 100% and do not need to take meds what so ever. I guess being in your shoes I'd be a dick as well having to rely on meds. Again, that being said if the "lucky Sean b took his meds today" statement was true. If not In advance I do apologize for talking with false info

Thanks for defining "ignorant" but ummm prior to you, I clearly knew what the definition was. ;-) but thanks for the waist of time of posting the definition up

And now to sum up the rest of the bs you wrote after this. You are a complete idiot. All you seem to be is the typical "Internet hardcore thug" shit talker. I said you were a dick about how you came about the topic. Which is fact. If you think other wise. Reread what you wrote. Did I mention anything about your educational level? No. How your this piece of shit asshole that's this & that & that & this? NO. How you must suck at life cause you seem to be a complete imbecile? No!

So my man, unless your going to come out from where ever you are from to Providence RI bro. I'm just going to say, "chill the fuck out" you can catch me on broad st Friday and Saturday's. Neither of my cars are hard to miss Sean B.

If my question was "stupid" I don't see why you even bothered typing away. There have been a few things I've seen here worse than my "axle issue" and just clicked the back button. Was easy as that brother. Enough with the Internet tough guy act bro. Very easy to talk the talk behind a screen and CPU my friend. All I did was say how much of a dick and rude you were and you just exaggerated the whole thing.

Take them meds bro. Would be the best bro for both of us and for the sake of this thread, lock it, delete it, do what ever! but just dont waist your time and energy brother on typing away. Prov RI.... I'm not hard to find at all brother

Se-rican papa. No need for me to travel anywhere bro. He just took it over board. Easy as that. Had I known that this was going to be the outcome of a serious question. I really wouldn't have even bothered posting.

As I just said to him. I've read a few things on this forum that is like "seriously? Why ask that?" all I did was hit the back button and continued on with my life. Easy as that. Didn't pull the "Internet tough guy" or anything. No need for it bro. No time for bs.

I'm just a fellow enthusiasts completely new to the Nissan game asking a simple question. His ignorance & rudness was not necessary. Toyota is my shit. I saw the VE motor & specs & figured. Damn n/a? 189hp? 149tq? Gotta try it. And al do to a simple question shit gets out of proportion. Na Man. He's not giving he "Nissan name" a good attitude bro. Giving I'm sure he's a beast with it but just cause a fellow Toyota enthusiast asks me "is a 2jz better than a 4age red top?" I'm not going to flame him cause I know I wrote a whole entire thread about it. I'd give him the link and say the same as the guy that gave me the link before Sean b did. "read this 3x's and your answer will be answered!" simple as that.

The bs was unnecessary. That's all
