Finally lowered my SX last week. It was good times with a couple buddies and a case of beer!
Swapped out the springs with the Eibach Prokit. It claims that it will drop an inch but it was def more than that, which I can't complain.
Many of you will say to get some rims! But....I can't right now till next summer. I am currently saving up for my winter wheels and tires.
I am also working right now on applying sound deadener!
Please fill free to leave your comments/suggestions.. thanks for looking!

Very good, very good. Makes it look like more of a sporty wagon than a short RX.
Red-outs give it a bit of a GS look to the rear; interesting. (unsure how I feel about it since I quite like our tails)
Are you going to get a lip kit at all?

As for a lip kit......I don't know yet, I really liked the Sportx stock bumper look. If I do add a kit, it will be last as I want to work more on suspension. =)

Yeah, can't wait to see your slammed IS3, never seen a yellow one yet in person! I am planning on going to the July 18th meet in Tukwila, hopefully I will see you there.

Thanks for shout out IS3_FTW! Hmmm...I may be interested in the JIC STB. I just wanted to get one for the rear but might as well get one for the front. How much is dirt cheap??
Send me a PM!
