How low to drop?
#2
If I were you I would purchase the Eibachs. I put them on my car and not only did it look good (not ricey at all)but it handled a lot better. The ride is just a bit rougher but its well worth the look and performance.
it a hell of a lot better than cutting your springs

1.5-2.0 in.
Actually, I dont think having a low car is ricey. Having a car with Cut springs, blown struts and wheels with no hubcaps is ricey!
Im lowered 2 in. on Sprints.

as soon as i can, i'm gonna get the tokico struts/springs, they are supposed to be 1.5 front and back, but because they're pretty new, they think they should settle a little lower, so 1.6 ish. i got all this from the install page on the homepage.

Thanks, Im still debating that one.
I may stop all the exterior things and start focusing more on a boost setup.

I put H&Rs on my 97. Lowers it 1.25 inch - I think it is - and closed up the gap nicely. I wouldn't want to lower it any more than that - not for looks but practicality. As it is, I now scrape the muffler on speed bumps and sometimes scrape my front spoliler on the curb if I pull in too far. Any lower and this would be happening more. I'd also be worried about bottoming out more. All that aside, I think the slammed look is sweet, up to a point. If you can't see any rubber at the top it's too much IMHO.
I searced a bunch of threads first and the general feeling was that H&Rs gave the closest-to-stock ride. I've never ridden anything but stock and the H&Rs so can't really say about the others. I find the ride a bit stiffer, but not in a bad way.
To me, rice = a bunch of flashy cr ap with nothing to back it up - stickers and graphics and huge wings but otherwise stock beneath. But you know, you should do whatever you want. Like big wings? Slap one on. I'd rather see some expression of individuality than everyone look the same.
