I'd strongly suggest anyone to wait for stage 2 or 3.

i think you can buy it seperately and get it for the same price as getting it together. i dont knw yet though. i need to ask. dont take my word for it though. but its on my car and i suggest it that you guys get this if you autox or take bumpy roads and stuff like that.

as for wat i know this should help handling of the car and stability as well.. it reduces the car's lean during hard cornering... but i just got confused over wat bui said regarding driving on bumpy roads shouldnt it make it hard to drive on bumpy roads i mean cos ur whole car is stiffer...

Yea I know you can put on stage 2 after stage 1 is installed, but labour cost will be more if I were to take it to a shop to do it separately.

Not to mention shipping cost is also more.

it shouldn't make bumpy roads hard to drive, if n e thing it it would make the caar rattle and flex alot less making it feel more solid, thats why rally cars are soooo solid so that they work good in off road conditions. plus it makes the suspension do its job instead of the body.

labor shouldnt be anything if you know how to drill and bolt in a bolt and nut. its not hard to do the stage 2 and 3. but over the bumpy roads you feel it less. it feels a lot more solid so sometimes its less noticeable. also just gives it a better sportier feel. i like it. just cant wait till he sends my stage 2 and 3. but yeah it does help handling alot. before i had it my tires would squeel so bad now not as much and the tires are even worse. haha crappy michelins. oh well. but it can also turn quicker and better also you can induce oversteer alot more easily or understeer you choice on how you want to drive and if you have sway bars or not. but what sucks if if you take a turn too hard and you turn you feel like its all forced on 1 wheel the front wheel that is in the turn yet the car is flat. it makes me afraid the tire busts so i let off, but other than that part its real good. ahha

Pricing is the same with the Maxima Subframe connectors.

heres the email from dallas

I'll check on the 4th gen, let me know the exact years for the
generations,
that would help.

The pricing would be similar to the Maxima pricing, stage 1 and 2 is
$200,
stage 3 probably $45-50. Powdercoated add $75, undercoated add $30.
Shipping
about $35.

Grade 5 bolts, aircraft type locknuts furnished.
