Don't forget, Tanabe has two sets of springs made for our cars. one for a low drop, and one for racing\handling.

I thought i was the only one who was gonna mention them.

Tanabe makes "3" sets of springs for our cars.

For those of you who are all "show" and no "go", then this is what you want.

The DF210 line of springs enhance the appearance by lowering the vehicle 2~2 1/2in (50~60mm) without sacrificing comfort.

For those of you whow want the stock feel but still have a drop, this is what you want.

NF210 lowers the vehicle an average of 1 1/4~1 1/2in (30~40mm) without sacrificing the stock ride quality

For those of you who are looking for a simple drop but a stiffer ride, this is what you want.

Featuring increased spring rates of 20-30% over stock, Grip Feeling is more oriented towards performance. Lowering the ride height 1 1/24 to 1 1/2in (30-40mm) gives the car an aggressive stance, while providing a lower center of gravity for an increased amount of turning stability.



I have the GF210 springs installed in my car. It takes about 2 hours or less to install and the results are amazing. They are designed for a ST202, but fit perfectly on any "ST" or "GT".
