    i recently installed a lower spring,but now my question is.. every time na napapadaan ako sa humps or medyo hindi smooth ung daan medyo meron ako nariring na parang nag babangaan na metal.. dont know kung from saan pero prang sa spring.. feeling ko dahil masyadong compress ung ikot ng lowering spring kaya nag didikit.. pinapalitan ko na lhat ng pang ilalim ko.. any suggestion guys..

    obviously the lowering springs is the culprit....put back the stock springs

    baka inalis ung rubber sa ibabaw ng springs mo, merong ganun yun, or put ka ng garden hose, insert mo sa coil.... dun sa nakalapat..pa back-job mo yan!

    is the bump coming from the front or rear?... chances are if you have the series 2 sentra, it will be coming from the front. Front suspension travel of the series 2 (B13) sentra is notoriously short. A tip is to cut off half of the rubber bump stop to let u gain an inch of additional travel.

    +1^ i also recently lowered my car 1.5" drop using neuspeed springs. during installation, we cut the bumpstops into half to allow the shocks additional play... buti na lang nabasa ko rin dito yung about cutting bumpstops. so far wala namang masyadong ingay unless malubak ng medyo malalim lalim...

    OT: natural lang diba na medyo tumagtag ang ride after replacing stock springs with lowered ones?
