Funny story with the good camera.. IT BROKE! and my friend hasn't had the time, or felt like going to best buy to get it fixed/new one since he bought a warranty. booo

on a f***ed up note: I tried to go plate my car today, and I couldn't because on the title the guy had crossed something out with a pen and apparently that's not good so now I can't register my car until I get a new title. Called the guy that sold it to me, and his phone is off. I'm hoping that it's just dead or he's working. Soo.. I don't know what in the hell to do. I don't know if he's going to get in touch with me or not.

and on a good note: My coilovers come in Thursday!

is it easy to DIY? or do I need to get everything aligned and stuff after I put them on?

yeah. 5 nuts on the front and 3 in the back. you will need alignment if you drop really low. might want to set the height on the coils first before you put them on the car using a measuring tape.i hope you have some tools

Its really not that hard to install, just your basic tools 12mm/14mm and iirc 17mm for the rears.

I would still get an alignment when you put them on, regardless of the height you set them.

Make sure you post up some pics when you get them on.

if you are super slamming you'll need it. but you can live with a little camber of -3 deg. just make sure you zero out your toe.

I'm definitely not slamming the car, just dropping it enough so that it looks nice. Haven't gotten around to doing it. the title issue with my car is all messed up and I have to wait for the new one to get here so I haven't been driving it at all. It'll probably be a couple weeks..
