I don't know if even Ha's are a good choice for me.
I know FLEX is better, but how much better?????

um..... the HA is 1000 cash no tax, while the flex is like 1400 cash no tax. it's 400 bucks difference but the ride would be a lot better. the flex isn't stiff at all and you can pretty much lower the car as much as you want but still stay very soft and smooth ride like the stock. with the HA even with the softest setting the car is quite stiff i have to say. depends on what you wanna get i suppose. here in cali, with my HA, running on uneven road isn't uncommon and i can tell you it's a pain sometimes. but overall it's still good.
and btw, you can use edfc on both flex and HA

STB= Strut Bar....
LCB= Lower Chasis Brace....
But in this case that EDFC which (costs under $400. brand new) cannot mount on top of the coilovers because the STB is pretty much covering the adjustment nipple... There's enough room that yours be able to fit the key in to adjust them with the key provided but not the EDFC.. IMO I think the STB is more valuable that the EDFC any day of the week...

but just telling people the price i got from the shop in los angeles where i got all my parts. they are asians and they do cash no tax always, it saves a lot of money 
oh btw, i forgot it's 300 or 350, not 100% sure, whenever anyone wants anything, let me know.
also, for people in nor cal: if you want me to pick up anything in los angeles (or ask me to buy anything) i am more than happy to get it and take it back, that will saves a lot of shipping. only catch is you have to wait till i drive down, which usually happens once every month or two

ok, called the guy, he said the edfc would be 330 bucks cash no tax.
if you pick up, you just order it ahead, go in pay cash, and get the stuff.
if you want shipping, he said you can send money order (330 + shipping) to him, and he will send out the stuff. that's no problem too.
he said shipping should be around 20 bucks for nor cali, and around 30 bucks for east coast
not sure how cheap that price is though compared to other places, anyone?

yes i love cash no tax. i mean you are talking about 100 bucks when getting a 1 grand suspension, that's some money. imagine if you buy a 3 grands brakes upgrade there.so you are the guy he was talking about?? i visited him when i was down there, and he said someone will come in to install CS, and said i refer the guy. i have lost track coz' i have referred so many people. he said there has been more than 10 or 15 guys installing tein there who are referred by me, hahhaha

Oh, I for got the TC and the LSD.... That's some heavy a$$ greenbacks I'm looking at.... :eek:
