Hey,I just purchased a 6sp black hatch. My only real goal other than tint, and window visors is slamming it to the ground. Was thinking of the ksport coilovers and maybe some sportmax002s or something....in 15s-17s. I cant seem to find pics of slammed ones, any help?

yup exactly, maybe even a smaller wheel and tire to get extra lower. Does anyone know if ksport coilovers will get this low?

I'll apologise ahead of time for this one. You are a moron. Just because you never heard of something means nothing. Ksport is far from unknown. Feel free to call me a troll and ban me or w/e, I just can't see stupid and not comment.

While Ksport is known, I have not seen that they make a Versa application. And I'm pretty sure any coilover will get you as low as you want, whether or not it is functional remains to be seen.

KSport is very known, more in the Honda world, but yeah...it is not even close to unknown.Tanabe ones are nice, but I've got a friend hooking me up with some KSports for 400. so..yeah hahahaha

and blind_snyper, you see how the back tires are within the back well/fender? I just recently a few days ago loaded up stuff from my apartment, because I'm moving to a house now, and man...that 1.5 inch or so after installing the springs turned into (PRETEND) -.8 an inch haha my wheel went in a little more than that chop, but hahaha I was like DAMNNNN cool.

I want to slam mine too, but for those who live in socal and know about the 10 freeway, know about them potholes too. And that's the freeway i have to take for my commute to work.

Anyways coilovers are the way to go if you want to slam your car, i would guess you would have to adjust it to the lowest setting. Tanabe and K sport are the only coilovers i know that are available. Or you could buy some bags haha.

Maybe I'm missing something... but why would you want a car lowered that much? Sure it may turn better and look good (although I don't think THAT low looks good) but how do you plan on actually riding in it? The stiffness would annoy the hell out of me and in this city, you wouldn't make it. The roads are crap. You'd have to crawl over railroad tracks and it'd probably be impossible to go over a speed bump that slammed. If you get an adjustable height coilover set, then sure. It makes more sense.

I'm running the tanabe coilovers on my car on the lowest setting. Yes its a little rough. I also have to be careful goin over potholes and driveways. I don't need comments as to why this is dumb. I like it and for those who are interested i have some pics in my cardomain.
