... I'd actually rather not have had it on this one. It's for my dad to replace his Primera and I would have preferred the standard setup. Still, it's not much firmer than the standard CSE suspension and anyway, he thinks my Aero with the Abbott suspension and JT exhaust is quiet and smooth...
I'll compare it with the '95 and see what the differences are. The springs would probably be different anyway between auto and manual variants, but I'll pay attention to the shocks. As far as I remember, the front shocks ended with "V182". Again, yours being different may be due to the different year or the 2.3T engine.
I've been driving it around for the past week and I can see the appeal of the auto. As I say, it handles realy well now with the new bushes. I've kept the old ones and I'll take photos of the obvious wear on them for those people here who just don't believe that they don't last. If they were totally shot at 100K miles on a 2.0LPT auto, and probably long before, I'd be willing to bet my Aero ones were junk at half that mileage.
