Sprint springs + 4 people = VERY low maxima!
o boy last night i had 3 other people in the car with me and let me tell you with the sprint springs already lowering it 2" and their added weight my car was DROPPED!!
i had to have 2 of them get out of the car when i went over the gate to my friends apartment complex or i would bottomed out on the front and under ( found out the hard way). even when i tried going sideways over it i would scrap and bottom out! oh well, still looks damn good

It'll be REALLY CLOSE!!!!
I already have a Stillen front lip and I'm at stock height and I'm VERY close to scraping driveways etc. I've changed my mind about Sprint springs and am going with Suspension Techniques 1.5", they cost a little more, but rather pay more than have a scrathed up underbody and kit!

I'm installing my Intrax springs this week, so it should be a close drop to yours (which is insaaaane!!), I wanted to know if you think there is enough clearance for me to install a stillen body kit? Does anybody have an idea?

stillen body kit and intrax springs dont mix! i have a really hard time not scraping my car all over driveways, speed bumps, etc. but its all good, i dont mind and love the way it looks.
I agree with James
Intrax and Stillen does not mix for everyday driveability. For car show competitions, it's the best. I have Stillen and Eibachs and it's perfect for my local streets here in N Cali, but if you're in a state/city with good streets it just might work (like S. Florida) With the Eibachs I can enter/leave most driveways, speed bumps, parking stalls without rubbing. From speaking to others with Stillen and Intrax it's nothing but side-ways driving over every thing. If I move I'll be looking for a lower slam look.
good luck
yo i have the ST springs and the body kit and i only have problems when people are in my car. but if you go lower than 1.5 inch drop. good luck putting the jack under the car. i can barrly fit it under ride.

It's a shame that the stillen kit might not have enough clearnance for me. I have reust developing on the strip of metal on the sides of my car (rockers?) and I thought it would be nice to cover it up with a niec body kit.
Well I guess I'll need to get some touch ups done.
I live in Montreal Canada and I guess you can imagine what the roads are like here !

I have a 92 SE 5spd, which is originally from Montreal, Canada, I neglected it too, but the rear rockers and the whole underbody, mostly the suspension, were all rotted out, I had to metal patch the rockers, and luckily i was replacing sways and all, so everything is new now. The front end of the car is immaculate though. HOW MUCH salt do you guys use there in Quebec?????
Every bolt on my suspension snapped. So now every bolt is now new!
Im in Toronto by the way, and ive never had a car rust this fast. Oh well, **** happens.

and oh yeah, i forgot to mention, ive got the eibach/tokico, and ST sways, with the stillen front lip, and the scrapping is reasonable, i can live with it. The lip scrappes almost anywhere, and the sway, well, i only have 2 3/4" to 3" clearance at that point, I hate to see how low you guys are with the lower springs. CRAZY!
But it does look nicer, and handles better. So OH well.
