I pick up my set this weekend. Installation planned for next weekend. I'll take pics and post them up. Can't guarantee the timing though - my work owns my schedule recently.

Coilovers are on but the workshop had difficulty in changing studs so the car is still on 16" with winter tyres. Once 17" with 215/45 are on I will post up the pics.
But if you want to have an idea, check out pics in THIS THREAD. These were taken with my previous set-up (stock shocks plus lowering springs) and D2s on the highest set-up is just a bit higher.

I was thinking of lowering the rear a little more. These are shots of coilover through the wheel and under the car. And of course the plates up top in the rear and front. The car used to be white. But i got it painted black. Putting Texas on the map.

Im not sure how low the drop is. But i dont scrape on TC wheels. There is still a 2 finger gap in the rear wheel. The front, im not sure its alot lower than the rear. I dont think im tucking, i think it sits right above the wheel. It will go lower, but thats just asking for damage.

ive been looking into coilover for a while but i have been told i need a camer kit to stop my tires from wearing out on the inner edge alot quicker since lowering on most cars cambers the wheels so u ride on the inside of the rubber. do celis need a camber kit and if so where can i find them and if they dont how do u fix the camber so u use all of the rubber on your tires?

Correct me if I'm wrong - D2 has the front regulated (as in the pics) and this works as camberplates. So nothing more needed. -------------------- '94 ST202 - tuned, highly apprieciated, but sold.
