I was wondering how the ride was with those springs. I was also wondering if you had any shocks.
BTW, Your car looks great. :D

yeh, but with stock shocks, its good to have that long stroke. i think the ride height is pretty good...with 2-3 people onboard, it would probably be as low as my TEIN's.

Looking good. There's something about a nice subtle drop that I like. I really like the look of the painted grill and those sport 16" wheels. Good stuff! http://www.minorannoyance.net/~spin/Smilies/otn/wink/thumb.gif

That's true, I'd get the eibachs instead of my Tein's if they had a nice 2" drop. Save up some mo bread and invest in some shocks b4 you are forced to.

Thanks!! :D Yea it didnt drop it as low as I wanted but im very happy with it because at least it looks droped, and it handles awesome, I take some turns pretty damn fast and the car holds on good!! Do you really think that I will NEED shocks?? The next thing I want to do is get rid of that ugly orange in the front.. I hate it!!

You'll be better off keeping the orange. As much of a hassle it is to get it out. You will eventually need shocks. Just play it by ear and when you start getting too bouncy, you'll need to replace them ASAP.

Give it a try then. You'll have to take the whole headlight assembly off to even get to it. It's very irritating and chances are you might scratch up the inside of the housing. I cleared my tailights and it was a mutha. Took me like 2hrs for both. I tried to take my front headlights off and it wasn't hapenin. Good luck. It does look better, but at what cost. Have a go and let us know.

I had the orange reflectors on the sides of my front bumper painted but I would never mess with the orange in the lights. It looks to be a huge bitch to get that orange cleared out of there and I know I would make a mistake. Better to be safe then sorry.

Hey man I LOVE THAT CAR paritcularly cuase i have the same one in the same color. I like that drop and have often thought of doing that 2 and u just gave me another reason 2. I cleared out my turn signals and I recomend you do that 2 they look real nice especially with silver. My next body mods are 2 take that grill out on the bottom of the bumper between both fog lights and to reove the center post on the spoiler. Good luck with your car G20's rule

eibachs are nice but i agree, it doesnt drop the car that much. your shocks will probably blow in about 4 or 5 months, maybe more if your lucky, but the stocks cant handle the new spring rates. nice car btw

Thanks... :D Yea I want to clear out the orange but it sounds like a pain in the ass to do!! I know it doesnt drop that car that much but enough to make a difference in looks and in driving! Which grill are you talking about??

Not the top grill in the hood but the one that sits in the center of the bumper, I am getting that profesionally cut, sanded, and painted so I can put a nice intercooler there. Theres a post around here some where with a guy who did that.
