I FOUND SOME SPRINT SPRINGS FOR A LIL MORE THAN 115$ AND WAS WONDERING HOW THEY ARE ON A 240SX.

ALSO WHAT AFTERMARKET PARTS ARE INTERCHANGABLE FROM THE KA TO THE SR

THANKS GUYS

Dont know how goog the sprint springs are. Sorry :\

I can only think of a Short Shifter that is swapable between the SR and KA. There are lots of parts. But mostly for things other than the engine.

yes the springs can be on a SR
and i am putting the sprints in next week when my rear rubber boot over the shock comes in cuz it is back ordered
i am putting on AGX adjustables with Sprints....
where r u getting it from? Impactparts.com?
Importparts.com can do the same price... talk to Ben and tell him "verynice2people" from AIM sent u.... he is mad cool
and got my shocks here prompt and he is like 15 min from the sprint warehouse
impactparts didnt have them in stock and they wanted me to wait like 2 weeks

I have Sprint Springs on my car and I love 'em.  Pretty stiff ride but really good handling.  When I first put them on I had stock 15's with hub caps.  Now I have 17 in. motegi mr12's and the car seems like it could use another inch or two of lowering.

i put in sprint springs in my car 3 years ago and they feel the same as they day i put them in my car.  Very good.  I bought them for 180 installed.

in january of 99 i had sprint springs (2 in drop) and kyb agx's installed for 800. the springs are still going strong, and still handles well.

it you lowered your car the lowest sprint makes (i dont remember) you should get that tape that goes around the springs because now my springs make some noise.  But i heard that the tape solves the problem.  You can get the tape from PDM or any other shop.
