Saggy A$$

Here's the deal.

Neuspeed sports (coupe), Tokico Blues, Progress Sway Kit and Gray's Endlinks.

The rear of my car seems to be lower than the front but i don't really want to deal with the hassle of replacing the spings. I'd like to raise the rear a little and I was wondering if lengthening the endlinks would raise the rear any. They're currently a few threads from their shortest. Thanks

The sway bar does not do anything for ride height.

Ya i just thought the extra tension on the bar might push it up somehow... I'm really starting to wish i'd just saved a bit more and gone for some tien basics... damn!

How much lower are we talking here? And to Tokicos have the snap ring rear perch like Konis? Honda has been fiddling around with the location of the rear perch on a random basis.... so if you won't have the perch in the right spot, it explains the sag... its not sagging, but the springs aren't long enough.

I don't believe they have that type of perch. I think they're fixed... at least i don't remember seeing any different perch settings when i installed em. Does anyone else know the answer to this for sure?

I've got a single 12" but even when i take it out it doesn't sit that much higher. What size tires do you have?
