SO yeah i finally picked up some springs for $220. I was planning on getting coilovers, but I'm moving soon and didnt want to dish out $800+. Coilovers will come in the summer.

here are pics.

Comparing the New to the old (front springs)

Where did u get them from! 2-3 I will pay the shipping.the blue is clean but it don't look right without some chrome under.

haha nice man, but i think in a few more days you will see it much lower. still looks like it needs to settle. hows the ride? feels better right?

YupImJOee

feels way way better than before. and for some reason theres less interior noise.

handles better, less road noise, less body roll.

Looks Good!! Did you still use the factory shocks? I have a set of eibach springs and was thinking about getting some kyb shocks but don't want to shell out the funds right now. That simple drop that you got is exactly what I was looking for ... and if you have factory shocks and you say that it handles better then I may go the same route.

YupImJOee

yep factory shocks. When i took em off, i though my shocks were old...but they were just tooo clean to be old. took me about 6 hours to install....

one warning...when taking off the the castle nut...if you dont have a pitman arm...you can use WD-40 and tap the sides with a hammer and it'll pop off....but do not smash hit the threads. i made the mistake of hitting the threads by accident and it took me 2 hours to fix



just to add, the car went even lower when i got up this morning..went from 1.5" gap to around .75" gap

really...

I'm about to get mine done tomorrow. KYB shocks and Tanabe's.

How long on average does it take for springs to settle? is that just for new springs, or used ones as well?

yusef

mine took bout 3 days maybe, i drove it during those 3 days too. i was told driving would help them settle faster. cant wait to see ur car after the drop

i have 20" rims what kind of springs should i get? i have no idea how any of this stuff so i just wanna get the right springs that dont rub with 20's

yusef

i used to have 20s, these springs are fine. you wont rub.

yusef

hey yupimjoee you installed them yourself right? was it hard?

YupImJOee

yeah installed myself. It was easy, just time consuming and your body will hurt afterwords if you rush and if you do it alone.

for the rears you would need some help.
