N16 DCi-R

dont know if BC springs are the same but the meister front springs are longer than the rears... 200 vs 180
 
I think they are the same iirc. Not an issue if not though an extra 20mm won't affect fitment. Unless the length affects how they perform?
 
Found this pic from when I fitted them, confirming rears are the same. 62mm dia. and 200mm length all round.

Yurp.

I was looking at Eibach ones but they are 65mm ID I think by conversion, so not sure how safe that is. BC's springs seem ok anyway but have no comparison with coilovers.
 
Least interesting parts but I ordered new bolts for strut>knuckle and new news for subframe in preparation of changing coilover springs and fitting subframe collars. Not going to be caught out by seized and stripped bolts and rounded nuts this time.

Managed a 10% discount on them too at Nissan by saying I was a member of the AOC :)
 
Nut comes with it. Think it's all part of the part number. I ordered some a few years back for the grey car. Fresh bolts... something therapeutic about them.
 
AEM MAP sensor and gauge going in. Just need to find a non-ignition 12v source. Hopefully one going to instrument cluster?

Ah yeah there is a light on the instrument cluster that flashes. The Key symbol when the car is locked.
 
Easiest one is normally the permanent live to the stereo for it's memory. Usually Red, next to a yellow which is ignition live.

New map sensor and gauge gone in :). Yet to test.

Strangely Sim the live wire was yellow. Go figure.
