2nd Gen NISMO 2x4.

considering either CST Spindle with Radflo's or a titan swap fully adjusted with no spindle. I plan to do moderate off roading and this car is my DD. Anyone have an opinion as to which is better?

I have heard rumors that a titan swap will improve the turning radius? Can anyone comment on this?

Lastly how much lift can i get in the front with a 2x4 titan swap? is 4'' the limit or can I squeak 5''?

Please feel free to post pictures of your titan swap with or without a spindle to see the stance, ive seen some but i'd like to see more!

I titan swapped my truck. didnt improve the turning radius any that i can notice. no data on it but not noticable.

my titan swap was a poor man's titan swap: stock titan ucas, lcas, prg tie rod extensions, and prg ss brakelines. with this i gained .5in on top of the 3in i got from the spacer. i guess you could do a coilover and crank it and put a spacer on top it to get 4-5inches but i wouldnt reccommend this way...

i would go with a spindle, radflo/king/icon coil overs, and a uca. titan swap and spindle make you wheels ridicoulsously wide and kinda looks retarded(to each their own) without glass fenders. with the spindle and coils you can get 6inches of lift if you crank the coils.

this will give you about the best offroad capabilities with a 2wd

heres mine

A titan swap will off a lot better ride, but I think you can only get about 3" of lift out of it, maybe more though, Im not sure. A cst spindle just lifts the truck 4", but it does it the right way by pushing the hub down and keeping the stock geometry, but it doesnt improve ride quality at all. Also, I think a titan swap would just make turning worse since its wider. Just think of making a U-Turn in a stock titan vs a stock frontier.

Titan swap(new upper and lower control arms) offers 0-.5in of lift! so a titan swap does not lift your truck. if you got the adjustable coilovers you could lift your truck 2in.

a spindle and coilovers would improve your ride

^^^yah thats what I meant to say, but forget to. Swapping the control arms by themselves won't give you any lift, but most people associate a titan swap with also adding aftermarket coilovers which you can get like 3" of lift out of.

If all you want is lift, get the spindles. If you want travel, titan swap. If you want performance, titan swap with 2.5 shocks, upper control arms. You can throw the spindles in any of those packages.
