Big change from Goldlines slammed on blown struts I paid $400 for the set new. My current setup is shot to hell. I can't wait to get them on. Will let you all know how they are Thanks UPS Girl!

^ ok, i have no idea wtf you just said.

OP, nice setup, I'm running blues with Tein S-techs atm. I may change the springs though, the rears sag a bit too much for my taste.

Actually it was Pedro, the FedEx Guy, but I needed some excitment in my life today so I had to fantasize.

Currently I am like 2.25" inches on GoldLine Springs and shot to hell NAPA struts. I seriously needed to get this new setup as the ride quality was so bad If I were to dismantle the tires and ride around on the bare rims I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. The Supposed Drop is 1.25" with this setup, but I will take accurate measurements for you all after install.

That's classic, I've seen that picture years ago. It is a great picture though! Seriously, They should think about hiring people like that, because then more people would order and ship things UPS!! I love getting things from delivery people, no matter who it is!

I installed them about 2 weeks ago and let them settle in. So far so good, I think the drop is very similar to the Eibach Sportlines, I get a two finger gap at each wheel. The ride is very rough though!! I definately was not expecting that. It rides very similar to when I was on GoldLines except I'm not boucing around. But I guess I was expecting a softer ride. Anyway I got a good deal on them and like I said before anything is better than what I had before.

Re: Sweet! Look what UPS Girl brought me...

So what's the outcome of the HPK307 kit? I was thinking of getting it too, but wanted to know what others that have the kit thought. I visited the tokicos website and they say the best springs to use with blues are tokicos springs or OEM. So this kit should be very nice smooth ride, but allow you to be a little aggressive in the corners.

I was thinking on getting Tein S. techs and blues, but have read mix reviews.

Re: Sweet! Look what UPS Girl brought me...

Yea. S techs and blues looks pretty good, but rides rough. There are some posts on here about fake tokicos that got sold on Ebay. Hopefully I didn't get some of those. Reviews say they ride great and some other people say they are rough as we are. My s-techs got more and more bouncy as I went though. Rough unleveled roads SUCK!
