Little Help?!?!

I want to get new suspension. TEIN's comes to my mind. Do anybody have any reccomendations on what to get? I want to get myself the full system coilovers. Type SS w/Pillow Mounts is what I was looking at.

What do you guys think? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I have the basics and thats enough for me! The ride is good (well as good as it can be rideing on 18's) Im not gonna be hitting the track so there is no need for me to get anything more.

Decide what your gonna be doing and then decide on which setup to get....dont spend $200-$300 more for a feature your not gonna use!

Thanks bro! I'm not going to use it for the track or anything. Just ordinary driving. I want a smoother ride though, I'm getting tired of my lowering springs.

Im lowerd about 2 1/2" and thats good enough for me. If Im not mistaken they can go as low as 4" but its not reccomended of course. I bought mine from Showstoppers in glendale they usually have good prices. Vinnie/Dj02 installed them for me and did a good job!

If you decide to call (949-584-6659) ask for Marcus. He'll hook it up since lots of 7thgens have already bought off him.
