Speedbump

You may be able to get cheaper install elsewhere but that price is pretty good.

I think you have a coupe, but this is how the drop looks....you get the idea:

The gap in front was a little under 2 fingers settled. The rear, tucked. But the fronts came down more than the rears once settled....prolly cos I had the sub in there right away after having the springs put in.

dont know.. never asked how much it was just for the springs.

most likely around the 300 - 330 mark.

1llmatic on this forum can get them.. as he informed me about it.. about a week or two ago.

i am running neuspeed sports on my sedan cuz they are the only springs that doesnt sag in rear for sedan
since u have a coupe u shouldn't have a problem on the rear (i think)
talk to vicLX cuz he has a coupe and he is running H&R
but consider getting camber kit if u dont want bad rubber

H & R's are only a 1.5 inch drop (after settling) ... anyone here get a camber kit for such a mild drop?

H&R sport springs are made for the coupe so the it settles fine on a coupe...for the sedan the back settles lower than the front.

i had H&R sport springs in my car before and it wasn't that bad. (sedan)

you don't need a camber kit for sport springs.

H&R sport springs $420 installed @ defcon
