I was wondering if you guys have pics of your cars with either Eibach or Tein springs w/stock rims? I'm going to be lowering my car very soon and need an idea of what it'll look like, I'm not really leaning towards the sportlines, but I think I might just wanna get some Teins, or hell even H&R's. But any pic would be appreciated! Tanx.

-------------------- the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.

[right][snapback]275930[/snapback][/right] No sorry I don't, the only other pics that I have are when I had Ground Controls on them. Honestly, at the rear I have 1.75"(3 finger) gap and the front there's about 1.5" gap. The pic looks a little deceiving though, It looks a lot lower in person than in the pic. Probably because my springs have settled over time. |

sportlines + kyb gr2s = rough ride but really good handeling in/out of corners and also quick manuvers on the freeway. The set up keeps the car nice and upright and very little sawying compaired to stock.
I have to say that on long trips on the freeway u will get out feeling it lol. You definantly feel the road waay more. Some freeways in LA arnt that great of shape and its quiet a ride. Personally i love it makes me fell im on a crouch rocket. I love feeling the road. |

[right][snapback]276824[/snapback][/right] Bottom out? Maybe cause you have a swap and its more wieght or somthing, I have only botomed out or scraped when i have had 3 or more people in my car and going over those nasty speed logs.. I call them logs cause there like a 4"-4" block in the road with a slight curve, they suck. |
