tigawoods and hatchhy gst, what are you guys running in terms of suspension? Springs or full coilovers? and what brand and how low. Im gunna be buying springs over the winter, and the raods in my city are real rough, so I don't want to go too low but i like the height of both of your cars.

hey thanks, both of us have ksport coilovers idk exactly how low it is cause i tuned it for performance not for looks. The one thing you need to look at if you are getting springs is also struts, because you cant really do 1 without the other. Also an fyi do not get the coil springs for mac. struts the the worse things when it comes to ride quality

Do not get coil springs for mac? What do you mean, is that a specific brand? I was mostly leaning to the tien lowering springs cause I like the look of those springs. I would go with full coil overs but they are way out of my price range.

Got them on eBay; they had a small crack in the left corner area and little white paint dots all over. Bid $1 dollar and won...paid 38 dollars to have them shipped from texas. One evening of sanding and buffing with rubber compound and I had an awesome set of JDM tails. biggrin.gif

I just found the one picture that I ever got of my car when I had it lowered. Forgive how dirty it is... Just thought I'd post it here in case anybody ever needs a reference picture. It was dropped 1.5" on Eibach Sportlines.
