Got my agx/progress installed also my brembo rotors!
 
I just got my car lowered yesterday. I went with the agx/ progress setup. So far it is extremely nice. The car feels stiffer around turns and it ride very smooth. Something to get use to is going over bumps and potholes, its a little bit stiff and u'll fell it. I have my agx set as 2/4. I also got my Brembo cross drill/ slotted rotors in (got it from GD) I love it!! it make the car look more aggressive and sporty. I'll have pics of these mods as soon as I get them developed. They eill be on my homepage. I'll have them up by Sat night/ Sun morning.

Nice to read your good feedback! I just scooped AGX's/Progress too. I'm looking to getting them installed next Monday.
Did you use wire wrap (that helical split wrap) on the top & bottom few coils of your springs? Plus, did you replace any other suspension parts (like strut bearings, etc) while you had everything apart?

you feel a difference in braking with the cross drilled?

I used so vinyl tubing (.5 diam. may need a little bigger for the front.) I didn't replace any parts cause they were still in good condition. There is no sound that I notice so far. I even went on a 10 mile stretch of bumpy dirt road to try and break those springs in. There was no sound at all. :eek: I'm really happy with this setup.

At first my rotors faded a little cuz I think it came with some type of lubercant. ?? After a day of driving they felt a lot better. Stopping-wise there is a noticable difference. Its a quicker response.

Did you need to cut the bump stops since you lowered the car?
