Well about 2 weeks ago I got my Neuspeed strut bar and Tein Basic Coilovers installed. First I want to thank Jason(InanimateCarbonRod) for all his help with this, without him it wouldn't have been done. Anyways, the ride is way better then the one I had with my H&R springs. Now dont take me wrong the ride with the springs was better then stock, but these coilovers not only ride smooth but let the car sit a lot lower then before.

very nice. i think i'm gonna get a black neupeed bar instead of a polished one too.
Hey, someone told me the bar doesn't help as much as a rear strut tower bar. Did you get a chance to test the bar with and without it after the Tein drop? Did it make a significant difference like the rsx swar bar, or nearly nothing.

Thanks for the compliments guys. As for going lower, I have to drive some really crappy streets on a daily basis and i am cutting it close now.
DuYaKnow - I got to drive the car for about 2 weeks before the Tein's went on and as for the bar alone I did notice a difference as soon as it was on. I do a lot of highway driving and felt less "play" in the steering when I was weaving in an out of traffic. Since I put the Teins on the car handles better, even my wife commented on how much smoother it is driving when you have to switch lanes and such.
