Best Suspension 101: Lowering Springs Shocks

Best Suspension 101: Lowering Springs Shocks stillen_u_banner_v3

Lowering your vehicle is one of the most noticeable modifications both in visual impact and driving dynamics. We get quite a few inquiries about suspension setups and are often asked about the best practices to lowering a customer’s car. We are here to give you a brief “101” overview to  lowering your vehicle with springs and also complimenting them with shocks.
Best Suspension 101: Lowering Springs Shocks

Lowering your vehicle has several benefits:

  • Roll Center Reduction – The reduction in distance between the chassis and the ground reduces the roll center of the vehicle. This benefits the car in the weight transfer from one side of the vehicle to the other in a turn. Less weight transfer means more evenly-distributed pressure on all 4 tires which means better traction.
  • Spring Rate – In combination with the lower center of gravity, the increased spring rate of a lowering spring, which helps compensate for the shorter shock travel, improves handling by reducing body roll.
  • Aerodynamics – Lowering your vehicle improves the aerodynamics by reducing the amount of air passing under the vehicle. Reducing drag not only aids in performance but also improves fuel economy.
  • Style – Visual impact is typically the main reason people lower their vehicle. There is no denying that a lowered vehicle looks more stylish and sporty.

Springs have been the go-to method for lowering vehicles. The design of a good lowering spring takes into consideration things like factory spring rate, factory shock dampening, vehicle weight, and suspension geometry. Companies like RS-R and Eibach factor in all these  variables to create  a spring that offers good ride quality, improved handling, and does not compromise the factory shock absorbers. You can expect a slightly stiffer ride after installing lowering springs. Most enthusiasts welcome the increased road feel and the average consumer can’t tell much of a difference in comfort. With springs being fairly inexpensive and straight-forward to install, most enthusiasts choose them for lowering their vehicle over the more expensive coilover systems.

Best Suspension 101: Lowering Springs Shocks s-l1000

When selecting a spring there are typically a couple of options: Spring type (Progressive vs Linear) and Lowering Amount (I.E. 1 inch vs 2 inch). Selecting the amount you want to lower your vehicle comes down to preference and also how much ground clearance you feel is adequate for where you drive. For selecting spring type, it is important to know the differences between Progressive and Linear springs.

  • Progressive springs are pretty much what they sound like. The spring rate progressively changes as it is compressed. The advantage of this design is being able to keep a close to factory spring rate in a given operation range (say the range you would typically be in during daily driving) which retains factory ride quality. The range past this in which the spring would be compressed at a faster rate, such as aggressive turns and impacts (bumps and potholes), a mildly higher spring rate improves performance and also keeps the suspension from compressing too much (which could result in bottoming out or moving out of the operation range). Lowering springs typically utilize this design because of the versatility.
  • Linear springs are also what they sound like. The spring rate is constant along the entire spring. Linear rate springs are used when a specific shock absorber is designed and tuned to go with them. They offer a more consistent feel under compression (like what you would feel in racing and aggressive driving). When used for lowering a vehicle you sacrifice ride comfort. Because you are running a much higher spring rate, you don’t have the same comfort range like you do on a progressive spring. For most enthusiasts, the benefits do not generally outweigh the decrease in ride comfort so they are less commonly used by manufacturers.

Shock absorbers paired with lowering springs are also a common upgrade. While properly engineered lowering springs are matched to the factory shock absorbers, there are still performance benefits from a more aggressively-valved shock absorber or by simply replacing the old factory units with newer ones. There are several great offerings from Eibach for replacement shocks that are valved specifically for lowering springs so the performance benefits of your springs will be increased along with the peace of mind that comes with their 2-year warranty. Most shock absorbers last between 40k-80k miles depending on vehicle weight, driving habits, and road conditions. If you are in that area we definitely suggest looking at upgrading or replacing your shocks while you are installing lowering springs.

The VR30DDTT is an impressive motor. It is underrated from the factory as we have seen with dyno testing. The Hi-Output version is rated at 400 hp and 350 ft-lbs at the crank and the Low-Output version is rated at 300 hp and 300 ft-lbs at the crank. We have consistently seen ~375 whp and ~350 wtq from the Red Sport Q50’s and Q60’s and ~300 whp and ~290 wtq from the “300 hp” versions.

That being said, everyone is still excited to see what these motors can do. With factory forced induction there is often a ton of room for gains when you simply tune the car and crank the boost up. Now there is a lot to consider before assuming power gains by simply increasing boost and tuning. So strap on your thinking caps and prepare for the math!

The factory turbos on the VR30 are produced by Honeywell-Garrett. The model of the turbo is MGT14446LKSZ. We could talk technical specifications*, but in the end let us just say the turbos are small. What is more important is we have the turbo map for the MGT1446 turbo. This has allowed us to see what efficiency range the turbos are operating under stock boost, as well as the limits of the turbos when it comes to boost levels and power gains.

compressor-map-garrett

We can see the VR30 Red Sport (400) boost curve looks something like this. With this knowledge, we can run a series of calculations to see the efficiency of the turbos throughout the RPM range.

q50_ficbe_ldp_vs_stock_large

For everyone who would like to do the math themselves the basic formulas are as follows.
Cubic Feet/Min:

cfm-formula
Corrected Air Flow (CAF) lbs/min:

caf-formula
Pressure Ratio (PR):

p-formula

So for stock boost our table will look like this:
*we use 1.5 liters as displacement as only half the motor feeds each turbo.

Q50 Red Sport – Stock (14.5 PSI)
400-hp-stock-turbo-table

Utilizing the same formula and increasing boost, we made a graph then overlaid onto the Turbo Map. We included the Low-Output graph for reference as well.

q50-turbo-map-hi-and-low-output1

You can see that even at stock boost (for the Red Sport) the turbos are off the efficiency island (below 60%) post 5750 RPM. So what happens as you move off the island? As turbo efficiency goes down you begin to generate more and more heat for the given boost pressure.

If you look at the stock dyno sheet, you can see where the horsepower curve begins to flatten out at around 5000 RPM. We have also seen with an aftermarket exhaust and secondary cat deletes the gains past the 5000 RPM area are far less significant. This can pretty much all be attributed to the turbos.

2017 Q50 Red Sport Dyno

2017 Q50 Red Sport 3.0tt Stock Dyno Sheet

We went ahead and also did graphs of increased boost pressure following the factory curve up to max pressure. We assume the lower boost pressure below 4000 RPM is to keep the torque under control for driveability’s sake.

turbo-mapping-vr30ddtt-with-notes

Looking at the chart, one can see that as you increase the maximum boost levels you move out of the efficiency island very quickly. At 17 PSI you move below 60% efficiency at 5500 RPM which is not much worse than stock. However, once we get into the 19 PSI Range you can see us leave efficiency by 5250 RPM. On top of that we are moving over 23.6 lbs/min (or 342 CFM) at 6250 RPM very far outside of the efficiency island. This puts a lot of stress on both the engine and turbos.

So aside from changing the turbos (which there are no upgrades available at this time), what can we do to safely increase power? We believe it is unwise to spin these turbos much past 17 psi in search of a lot more power (at least above 5000 RPM). So with a moderate increase in boost pressure, the name of the power game will be EFFICIENCY (yes I’m sure you’re tired of reading that word).

Restrictions:

With any factory setup, there are going to be restrictions. Some are cost related, some are emissions related, and some are Noise/Vibration/Harshness (NVH) related.

We already know the first restriction point lies in the intakes. Factory intake systems are the first point of emissions and sound control on a car. The STILLEN intakes have already shown impressive gains in the mid-range powerband. This makes sense as the highest efficiency range of the turbo at factory boost levels (and even elevated boost levels) will be in the 3250-5000 RPM range.

The factory exhaust system on the VR30 powered cars is definitely a bottleneck as well. We know the secondary catalytic converters narrow down to 1.5 inches (diameter) just before the cat-back. On top of that the factory cat-back exhaust is a mere 1.75 inches (diameter). Now removing the factory catalytic converters is frowned upon by the EPA, so we can’t recommend changing those out. However, a cat-back exhaust is perfectly legal and voids no warranties (which we are sure most of you know). On top of giving the Q50 & Q60 the exhaust note it deserves, the cat-back greatly increases the efficiency of the turbos by reducing back pressure. This reduction in back pressure reduces the resistance on the turbines and in turn allows them to spool faster and easier. This means for the same given turbine speed, you are able to create more boost (or the same boost) with less heat.

Cooling:

While heat is necessary for an engine to run properly, too much is definitely a bad thing. While on a naturally aspirated motor, a cooler intake charge can greatly improve performance. Forced induction doesn’t yeild as impressive of results. Why is this? The air pulled through the intakes enters the turbo which compresses the air. The compression of air causes an increase in air temperature (see Boyle’s Law and Charles’ Law) which is problematic for internal combustion engines. With most forced induction setups there is an intercooler (or aftercooler) which is located between the turbo and the lower intake manifold. Said intercooler can be either an Air-to-Air or Air-to-Water system. The VR30 uses a pair of Air-to-Water intercoolers. The heat exchanger for the intercoolers (how the heat is removed from the system) is located in front of the radiator behind the grille.

The Red Sport version of the Q50 and Q60 both come with two waterpumps (push-pull) to increase cooling for the intercoolers. This makes sense as the Red Sport boost levels create a lot more heat at higher RPM than the 300 hp version. Knowing that many people will be increasing the boost of both models, everyone could definitely benefit from more cooling. While the intercooler units themselves would be difficult to upgrade since space in the engine bay is quite limited, the heat exchanger up front has some room to grow. Increasing the size of the heat exchanger does two things: allows for more heat to be extracted from the hot fluid, and increases the volume of fluid which increases the overall thermal capacity of the system. While this isn’t the ultimate solution, it would make running higher boost levels (17-18 psi) safer as well as reducing potential heat soak after prolonged aggressive driving.

Tuning:

While there is still a lot of exploring to do when it comes to tuning, there are several things we can see just by looking at the turbo map and dyno sheets. Your biggest gains will all be in the mid-range (2500-5000 RPM) with the stock turbos.

Based on the turbo map, tuning to 18 PSI from 4000-5000 RPM puts you in a very ideal efficiency range for the turbos. Now dropping the boost after 5000 RPM is important as holding too much boost is not ideal for the motor or turbos, but also won’t gain much additional power. This fine tuning of boost pressure adjustment is made easier by the factory electronically controlled wastegate actuators.

400-hp-optimal-turbo-table

q50-stock-boost-vs-optimal-boost1

While we are still waiting on the tuning companies we work with to release official software, we are confident it won’t be much longer. You can bet we are just as anxious to start tuning these cars as you are, but with any new platform the best products take a little time to develop.

infiniti_VR_engine_03

Although we probably won’t be seeing any 600 whp Q50’s or Q60’s without bigger turbos, there is still a lot of potential even on the factory units. Needless to say, we are all working on more ways to make power with this platform. STILLEN is about to release our new intake system for the 3.0t Q50 & Q60 along with our Cat-Back Exhaust for the 3.0t Q50!  Our engineering department has done a lot of work on these products and designed them with the factory setup in mind as well as future upgrades. Stay tuned (pun intended)!

Offering a nice balance of performance, styling, and luxury, the Infiniti Q50 is quickly gaining a reputation as a formidable sport sedan.  Having replaced the outgoing Infiniti G-Series for the 2014 model year, the Q50 has since sought to improve upon its predecessor’s winning formula.  However, the Infiniti Q50 really began to find its stride with its 2016 update, featuring a line of all new power plants.  These include a 2.0L four-cylinder turbo and a 3.0L twin turbo V6 that is available in both 300 and 400 HP variants.  Thus, no matter what level Q50 you choose, a turbo is guaranteed to be sitting under the hood.  Hey, we’re certainly not complaining!

Over in Santa Clara, CA, the team at Frontier Infiniti have been enjoying all of the turbo-goodness of their Q50 lineup.  In fact, they sought to take things one step further, equipping a 2016 Q50 3.0T Premium with both a STILLEN front lip splitter and rear diffuser.  Turning heads on the showroom floor, this STILLEN modified 2016 Infiniti Q50 certainly is certainly helping put the “sport” back in this sport sedan!

 

STILLEN Modified 2016 Infiniti Q50

Frontier Infiniti’s modified 2016 Infiniti Q50 features a new STILLEN front splitter and rear diffuser, helping to subtly compliment the car’s already aggressive body lines.  In fact, this particular Q50 features a front splitter that is specifically designed for the Premium trim, resulting in an upgraded front fascia that is quite striking, to say the least.  In fact, “Premium” would just so happen to be the perfect word to describe it.

The STILLEN front splitter compliments the assertive, menacing face of this 2016 Infiniti Q50.

Both pieces are made from durable and resilient polyurethane, resulting in products that are built to last.  Additionally, they can be installed with relative ease thanks to our 3M automotive trim foam tape that comes preinstalled.  Frontier Infiniti’s modified 2016 Infiniti Q50 displays its STILLEN upgrades in a matte black finish, but both pieces can always be painted if desired.

The 2016 Nissan Maxima has been causing quite the buzz since its initial release last year.  Hailed by Nissan as the ultimate “four door sports car,” the Maxima is surely beginning to live up to its potential.

Sporting an impressive 300-HP 3.5-liter V-6, the vehicle certainly packs a punch in the performance department.  However, the Maxima is not simply a rugged, fire-breathing machine.  Aside from the powerful engine, the car also features a roomy, luxurious interior as well as a sleek, attractive exterior.

As a result, the 2016 Nissan Maxima appears to be the perfect example of a sporty, yet refined daily driver.

The team over at Matt Castrucci Nissan in Dayton, Ohio, has decided to take things one step further with one of their Maxima’s in order to max out the fun factor.  Featuring a full-blown STILLEN package – including a front lip splitter, rear diffuser, axle-back exhaust system, and cold air intake – this modified 2016 Nissan Maxima has become quite the showroom-stopper.

STILLEN Upgrades for the 2016 Nissan Maxima

Here at STILLEN, we have developed a slew of aftermarket parts for the new Maxima, ranging from aesthetic upgrades to performance enhancements.  Matt Castrucci Nissan’s modified 2016 Nissan Maxima features most of these parts, including:

Front Lip Splitter – The STILLEN 2016 Nissan Maxima front splitter has been designed to subtly accentuate the car’s new aggressive body lines.  The overall look is striking, yet passes for an OEM addition.  The STILLEN front splitter is made of durable and resilient polyurethane and comes pre-installed with our 3M automotive trim foam tape to help with easy installation.

Rear Diffuser – Similar to the front lip splitter, the STILLEN 2016 Nissan Maxima rear diffuser is also a nice complement to the car’s new styling.  The rear diffuser looks right at home underneath the Maxima’s factory rear bumper, imparting a performance-oriented appearance.  Once again, the 2016 Nissan Maxima rear diffuser is made of long-lasting polyurethane and features 3M automotive trim foam tape for installation.

Axle-Back Exhaust System – The STILLEN 2016 Maxima axle-back exhaust system serves as the perfect paring for the STILLEN rear diffuser.  Although the axle-back system features an aggressive exhaust note, it is still refined enough to preserve a quiet cabin feel, maintaining the new Maxima’s balance of performance and luxury.  Overall, the STILLEN exhaust system offers your Maxima a high quality look and that sweet STILLEN sound.

Cold Air Intake – The STILLEN 2016 Nissan Maxima cold air intake aims to maximize your vehicle’s horsepower and torque.  Featuring a sleek, polished aluminum intake tube, the STILLEN cold air intake is built to last, all while offering performance gains of up to 8-10 horsepower!

STILLEN Modified 2016 Nissan Maxima

Matt Castrucci Nissan’s STILLEN modified 2016 Nissan Maxima is set to turn some heads.

 

With the new 2016 Nissan Titan XD, Nissan looks to jump back into the fray of the highly-contested pickup truck market.  Shooting for a nice balance between the efficiency and livability of a ½ ton and the performance and capability of a ¾ ton, the 2016 Nissan Titan XD could serve as the “Mama Bear” option to buyers shopping around the offerings of other more-established competitors.  In other words, it seems just right.

 

The Cummins Diesel is Coming for You, Big Three!

What really makes the 2016 Nissan Titan XD stand out is the all-new Cummins 5.0-liter turbocharged V8 diesel engine sitting pretty under the hood (yes, we said a Cummins diesel).  A Cummins diesel brings a level of heritage, performance, and reliability to the new Titan, much like it did for Dodge a few decades back.  All in all, the engine produces 310 HP and a whopping 555 lb-ft of torque.  That – combined with an AAM 9.84-inch rear axle and a 3.916 gear ratio – helps give the 2016 Nissan Titan XD the ability to tow nearly 13,000 pounds or carry over 2,000 pounds in its bed.  Pretty impressive stuff, if you ask us.

The Key to Success

A big key to the future success of the new 2016 Nissan Titan XD is a flourishing aftermarket presence.  Luckily, Nissan appears to be actively supporting its consumers’ desire to modify their rides.  Earlier last year, Nissan invited some major players in the aftermarket truck scene to a Titan “measuring session” to help aid them in manufacturing future accessories.  Well, we have now begun to enjoy the delicious fruits of this labor with an all-new 2016 Nissan Titan XD lift kit from ICON Vehicle Dynamics!

 

An Icon in the Business

ICON Vehicle Dynamics is one of the world’s premier performance suspension manufacturers.  They specialize in aftermarket suspension components for trucks, SUV’s, and pure off-road machines.  ICON’s products seek to improve your vehicle’s drivability, handling, and general performance in real world situations.  Their new 2016 Nissan Titan XD lift kit is certainly no exception to this rule.

 

2016 Nissan Titan XD Lift Kit from ICON Vehicle Dynamics

The 2016 Nissan Titan XD lift kit by ICON Vehicle Dynamics offers improved ride quality both on and off the road and an approximate 32% increase in wheel travel over the stock configuration.  It features adjustable coilovers that provide 2-3″ of lift height as well as vehicle-specific tuned front and rear shocks that deliver excellent shock damping and control.  The 100% bolt-on 2016 Nissan Titan XD lift kit ranges from Stages 1 – 3:

Stage 1 SystemIncludes ICON 2.5 Series coilovers, 2.0 Aluminum Series rear shocks, rear lift blocks, and u-bolts.  The Stage 1 setup is ideal for drivers looking to enhance their truck’s capabilities for normal road driving (as well as the occasional weekend off-road session).

A Titan Amongst Giants?

The 2016 Nissan Titan XD has some pretty stiff competition in an already-saturated pickup truck market.  However, the emergence of a strong aftermarket support system – starting with this new ICON Vehicle Dynamics lift kit – may be just the push the Titan needs to help it really live up to its name.
