nice drop!

what springs are you using?





canadian tire #1

i used Matrix springs with KYB GR2 struts. i am surprised with the matrix springs, good ride for the price. oh and an ebay camber kit.

how much of a drop do those matrix springs give?

LOWER!!!

thats not lowered :silly2: :D j/p

looks good

that looks really nice ... and I dont see any camber ... how much did this whole setup set you back?

damn. im lowered all the way down on my coilovers and it took me a year to go through a set of already kinda used tires. i am getting my camber kit now though :D

that's odd i'm at the bottom of my coilovers too:confused: all the way down i still have a 3/4" gap with a lil bit of camber and want it at 1/2".....so since i have no desire to raise my car...i'm just going to take off one of the 2 adjustable rings :) wann hear something even more odd....my last hatch had these same coilovers on and when i had it all the way down my tires were rubbing:confused: :confused: raised it up a tiny bit like where it is now on my car and had no camber:confused:

its a 2" drop.
prices, umm lets see. KYB struts $420(+tax). Matrix springs $175(+tax). Ebay camber kit, cost me atleast $130 to get that focker shipped and past customs. Plus, i had a shop install it all for me, and do an alignment, that was another $320.

go lower? haha, it was a snowplow at stock height lol. :)

Dude...I think that looks tight. 2" is perfect with those 15" Integra wheels. And nice job doing it all right the first time, with good shocks and a camber kit ;)

I want to get a 1.8" rear and 1.9" front drop set of of springs, but right now I am broke. After the ZC I'll let it be a sleeper for a while and lower it later. Me and Melt like the jacked up look :D

Now go to Honda and spend $45 or something like that on an 88-89 Si front lip and your car will look really good. :)

I like it a lot better now though with the drop. :D

LOWER! j/k, doesn't look bad at all. but i don't like acura rims on hondas (yes i kno they are all honda), its jus personal pref tho. doesn't look bad at all...jus think u should get some si's or something of the sort instead of the gsr cookie cutters.

if u want lower just put skirts, look at my side skirts black widow their like an inch of the ground, that too low...the height ur car's at is perfect at least u can get it up a hoist.

Now go to Honda and spend $45 or something like that on an 88-89 Si front lip and your car will look really good.


WTF?????

Where the hell are you shopping? Damn, sign me up for $45....hehehe

Last time I checked on one for my 91 Si, they were like $70 brand new from Honda.:eek:

YEAH I JUST PAID $73.00 FOR ONE AND THAT WAS CHEAP

looks good man!
hmm, thats my work in the back round in the 1st pic ;) hehe
