ftw?

eh... see ground controls are complicated... i mean i can get em and use stock shocks but when those blow and i upgrade shocks, i need a new set of coilovers... since they make two diff. models. one for stock and one for not.

and s-techs only drop 1.6-1.5.... not low enough... i want half a pop can low

wtf half a pop can low? hahaha...your not gonna get that on any cheap suspension...and if you do do it with cheap suspension you WILL blow something...

at the height that im at right now, i scrape stock piping over speedbumps...im not too fond of the "slammed" look...thats why i have 1-1.5" finger gap around...

you shoulda brought my Hayames when you had the chance but noooooooooo.

if you want something cheap that will do the job then get some skunk2 sleeves. they'll lower you car to the height you want, but the ride like complete **** and you'll definately blow out your struts within like 2 weeks and regret ever getting them...

dude i told you 2 weeks and when i tried to contact you you would ignore my pm's. i guess its cuz you sold them to cipher. thanks though... im not expecting a smooth ride when i drop, i always thought that you sacrifice comfort for handling.. and all that other crap... either way, i think i might pick up some skunk2s or gc...

not to start an agrument, but when someone offers to sell you their full coilover setup for $180 jump on the deal because its not gonna last.

good luck with your quest to lower your car
