Installed new suspension **Pics added**, Megan Racing lowering springs with GR-2s Options

[flyinglizard]

Just installed this setup with the help of a buddy on friday. Here are my impressions:

The ride is now VERY harsh. Way firmer than stock. Normally I am tolerant of firm suspension, but just driving to the grocery store kills my back. Everyone who has ridden in the car thus far complains

The car is only about 0.5 inches lower all around as of today. I'm assuming there is a break in period for new springs to settle.

The car feels much tighter and more responsive, at the cost of ride quality of course.

ok, those specs are deceiving, they look no where near the 1.6 drop from your pic. but yea saving is not the goal unless saving doesnt have any sacrifices or downsides.

The specs checked out right on samir's car. Look at his pictures.

Saving is definitely the goal if you are a poor college student earning minimum wage and paying $700 a month in rent like me

If saving isn't the goal then why are you driving around in an old celica? Go buy something newer and nicer.

The reason I bought the megans is because a couple people on the site bought them and had nothing but good things to say about them. I'm not trying to cut corners like you make it seem like I'm doing. I did the entire job correctly and didn't skip out on any parts.

@terbear: check out the official post a pic section under multimedia. I posted a couple pics there.
