Default finally pix posted of drop!

I've had this suspension for almost 2 months, just too lazy to u/l the pictures however, i'm actually @ home today so i finally got around to it. They are Zeal Function-S6's handling is amazing and worth every penny but the ride is obviously sacrificed but I'm used to it already so it's all good

before...



after...



another..



and another...



if you noticed when i bought the car it had a crappy tint job as well. lastly, the wheels for right now are 16x7's.. was going to upgrade to TT's but decided to just get some wheels instead

I'm am in awe of the difference a drop can make with these cars. You car looks 100X better in my honest opinion. Makes me want to get coilovers for my sc! Though they'll have to wait in line, i've got other things in mind first. (less expensive things)... In any case, mad props, it looks SUH-WEEET!

BTW: How much did you drop it in the front / back?

Zeal coilovers.. read above

NPSC303 - there is a finger gap in the back. i had the front lower in that picture. actually i raised the front last night because i was having rubbing issues when i would make turns sometimes. so, all 4 has a one finger gap

Sucks about the rubbing, I've actually consider just getting some TT supra springs for my front suspension to bring it down about .7" (they are compatible with our stock struts i believe).... Though the idea of bringin the whole car down 1-1.5 in the front, and 1 in the back is quite appealing

Nice center caps, where did you get them and how much?

I wonder if they would fit on Supra TT wheels.

Thanks for all the kind words everybody

NPSC303 - it looks dope with the front a little lower.. i woulda kept it like that if i didnt rub @ all

actuary - i actually got these off of fleabay for about 150 shipped. reason why it's so cheap is because they're curb marks on 2 of the wheels. i didn't really care because these wheels look waaaaaaay better then the stockies that we get

MongolKhan - yea i got a set just waiting for me to pick up.. i just need to give him the money for it. although, i want to get an exhaust first and foremost to compliment the drop. then, either go with the wheels or upgrade my F/R sway....... decisions

The ride is lookin' great! For some reason in the last pic it looks like there are spacers on the wheels (they look like they sit better with the guards) or my eyes are just playing up lol

Oh, and nice touch with the griffin hubcaps

Nice work man
