Like it. thumbsup.gif The rims match the car very nicely, and it has a clean look without any spoilers or accents like that.

How come your bumper has a different shade than your fender? Is it because of the reflection angle?

Anyways, awesome wingless car! Love the top-down shot!

Yes, it is the reflection angle.
For the top-down shot i parked the car near some stairs and i climbed them to take the shot. I bet it is not so common angle for a pic...

Thanks for the comments everyone!! thumbsup.gif

It is no more than a month that i had the springs installed. In addition the st's 7AFE is lighter than the 3SGE for which the Tein S.Tech springs were originally designed for. So i believe it is normal to sit a little higher.

I think it came with the head unit.

Not really. Driving my car without a steering wheel would be very difficult wink.gif wink.gif It is a '95 non AB 3-spoke by the way.

I dont't know exactly how much they weight, but i assume since they both have cast steel block and aluminum head, the more displacement the more the weight... rolleyes.gif

The ride feels great btw. I highly recommend the tein springs. The ride is not so uncomfortable in bumpy roads(very little difference with stock setup), but around corners the car handles a lot better with a lot less roll. I assume that is because of the progressive wound design. When combined with a good set of tyres, you can have lots of fun in curvy roads, even in tight corners. I personally use a set of Michelin Pilot Exalto 2 tyres which i believe is the best tyre i have tried so far.
