Default How to slam the SC

I'm guessin coilovers will do the trick... now the question is which coilovers will slam it to the ground.

Not that i would slam it... I'd just like to be able to do it for shows from time to time. I did a search and came up that the Tein CS: while it rides very smooth and stock-like will not lower the car as much as the HA's.

And that's pretty much all i found with the search regarding how low.

Anyone with tein HA's... how low can you go? And hows the ride quality at it's softest setting being as low as you are?

ahhh yes... i ran into that when i did my search... that's a crazy setup..

I'm curious however to the ride quality with that system? Do you know how it rides? Is it suitable to do some medium performance driving on them?

When your car looks that good, you don't need to go fast.
