on the 2LS, not even close. max height is still like 2" down from stock.

when you have RCAs to correct steering geometry it's even more profound, right now my fronts are at max HIGH in the front and i'm on a 0 finger gap.

Like PD and a few others have said find someone who knows how to adjust them properly. I have LP's on my 93 and my friend has LP's on his 91. EZ's and LP's are pretty similar and i'm pretty sure in terms of height adjustment quite identical. That being said the fronts can go a lot higher. I doubt stock height but you can gain at the least another inch.

Damn. Looks good sitting that low. I wana know how the ride is on the EZs sitting that low. I'm wanting to sit about that low. But I'm also gona add a front lip to give the apperance of laying frame when comming up behind other cars. Also, wanting to know how much body roll they reduced. I'm needing to reduce body roll as much as I can do to driving habbits.

My buddy was going to let me rock his. Work CR kai's. Not sure how it's going to look. Will post up pics to get a feel. They are 17s that came off a JDM STi. If they don't look good I'll put them up for sale.

Rides great when not slammed. The cat had about an inch off the ground before. After adjusting it I was Able to have enough clearance for daily driving. I live in the northeast where roads are infested with ridiculous potholes so having slammed was not a good look. I felt great improvement with body roll coming from air suspension to c/o. The bumps aren't that bad unless it is huge. I feel that the seats absorb most of the bumps. In all I am happy with Megan's and would recommend them to anyone who are looking for c/s suspension that don't want to spend a fortune.
