WANTED: Lowered cars, before and after pics
Post 'em if you got 'em, and add the info (brand, drop size, $$ paid). I'm trying to get an idea of what drops give what look. Thanx

kicker, I noticed you have bigger wheels on before the drop. What were they before/after? Also, how much of a drop?

CivicSiRacer, do you mean Eibach Pro Kit? The sportline lowers around 2", but Pro kit lowers 1"-1.5". What size are the wheels in the top picture (not auto x pic, other one)? Thanks for all your help.

kicker, thanks for nothing.

Yeah sorry the Pro Kit

Yeah about .2". Have two people sit in your car who weigh about 120lbs each. That's your difference

Hmm, I'm, considering the A'PEXi header to mate to my World Sport exhaust. Did you notice much difference with your header? I hear it's a really good one for low to mid end power, which would be great since my exhaust is aimmed for mid to high power increases. I was also considering the Chikira Hedman header since the A'PEXi is on the pricier side, and the Chikira is considered not too bad of a header.

BTW, I'm going soloing this coming weekend again. I'll let you know how it goes.
