ground control is the best coilover kit, but be aware, coilover spring kits are a bumpy ride. if you really need the adjustablity, go for it, but if you can afford to be low all the time, go with regular springs like eibach or ground control springs.

You can slam the car with ground controlls right? smile.gif

Also, if I get GR-2's with my ground control coil overs, will I still have to do some grinding on the shocks to get the coilovers to fit right?

I was surfing around the site & seeing that most people talk about a 1 inch, 1.5 or 1.75 max drop.

Then I came across this member profile which has a "lowered front 4" and back 3" by H&R" Is this for real? & If so what are the disads? is there rubbing with this height & some 18 inch tires. Is the ride unbearably bumpy & bouncy?

I'm pretty new to suspension issues, let me know,

thanx

I put a set of new coilovers by tanabe on the parts section, I don't know if Coomer has put them up yet though...

They are the same as what Signal racing uses on their S-13's.

You already posted about this on this thread and in the buying/selling forum. Please stop filling the forums with these posts. wink.gif

By the way Jon,
I just authorized the parts you uploaded. Those are sweet, and they're only $1,200! biggrin.gif I wonder if they're for the Super Strut cars or not.

Some ST202s came with the Super Strut suspension. I just sent Tanabe a lengthy email with questions about their springs, coilovers, and sway bars for our cars, and what they fit. Hopefully I'll get a response soon with some clear answers. and then I'll post it here and let you guys know what's up. smile.gif

Sweet dude. I'll be really glad if the springs work. They make the first set I've seen that actually stresses handling onver style, lol.
