Koni inserts, shorten strut bodies, and Hyperco Gen2 springs
Just wanted to post an update on my progress on my suspension which consists of Koni Red inserts and Monroe Sensa-Trac strut bodies, modified to shorten the struts by 1", and Hyperco Generation 2 springs. I should have is complete by the end of the month, but I posted an update on my site, here!

how did you find out which strut to use that was shorter? I'm trying to find some for my altima but nobody will give me measurements on insert diameter and length. mine are close to being the same length as a sentras but the diameter on mine are larger. I want to find shorter adjustables but not having any luck. motivational makes them but $1200 is a bit much for me

You don't use special struts you use aftermarket replacements w/ the Koni inserts that are specified for you car and modify the struts to make the inserts sit in the strut body shorter. Check out my website, should apply to just about any car.
