Here's a movie we took when we got bored, if you listen closely you can hear the owner of the parking lot near the end yell at us to get out of there.

Ack! Shoe print on the hood! Shoe print on the hood!

Sweet setup. I'm probably going to go the H&R/Koni route when I save up enough money.

And clear out those tails!

spring perch

I was wondering which setting did you put the spring perch on. you know how the spring perch can be moved up or down. I think there is two settings. Did you move it down or up????

Nice..

BTW, did you do the install yourself or did you pay someone to do it? Did you get your alignment redone? If you don't mind me asking, where did you buy the konis and H&Rs?

Thanks for the complements. Clear tails that project light during the day are in the works... I do still need to wash off the shoe print.

The setup is not coilovers so there's no setting for the spring perch. It's in the stock perch with the shocks set on medium.

My friend and I tackled it together after doing two other lowering jobs. Needless to say we were tired after that. I got it aligned afterwards, but after doing the installation we were only off .10 on one tire. We usually center it back in there pretty good. I got all the parts from one of our distributors.

Looks Great!

The car looks great!!! If you don't mind me asking, how much did the parts cost you total? I would love to do it but I'm not sure about the cost. Thanx for your help.

Personally I think this is how the car should've came from the factory. And lowering springs should put it down like as low as I am.

Looks A LOT better!

Looks nice!
Good job.

I gotta get some money saved and lower mine.
I'll probably go with H&R's and the KYB AGX's if they ever come out.

Yeah. I agree. It doesn't necessarily look lowered to others, but it just looks "right." In stock form, I think the body roll is a lot more pronounced than other cars too.

Ants, great looking ride--it's obvious you took great car of her...

how much space is between your tire and your fender?

My car has been lowered with cut springs (which I don't like) but I like how low the car is. I think it's probably lower than H&Rs or Eibachs, probably about the same as Sprints, I'm just worried about ride quality if I go with Sprints, that's why I'd like it if H&Rs were lower...anyways, how much gap do you have now?

where did you get your Addco RSB? I just ordered one and want to make sure I ordered the right one.
Thanks,
