Finally lowered... with TEIN S-TECHS!

[alphapig]

Ooooookay.

My bad man, I raged too hard over the stickers.

Gonna try to go a bit classier with next wheels

Classier than VS-XX?

Now I'm intrigued

[downedzephyr]

To each their own about the stickers. (I also participate in shows around here quite regularly so stickers are the norm)
And classier than the vs-xx? Just throwing it out there, I'm thinking someone here might be shooting for BBS or HRE.

Yeah, something a little more elegant / typical looking that doesn't stand out as much. So probably a brushed silver or polished finish. VSXX are known to be on the borderline of lux/sporty.

Someone as in YOU?

[downedzephyr]

hahaha maybe one day when i have the money, or when my buddy decides to sell me the HRE's off his G. but if you do decide to dump off the VS-XX, lemme know

Are you still running with the s-techs? If you are how have you liked them? Or if you switched, what to?

[seldomseen]

Did you mate your lowering springs to a set of aftermarket shocks/struts? If not how's the ride quality? I've never been to keen on lowering a car on stock dampers.

[normmynorm]

I haven't bought anything yet. Just seeing what everyone thought about springs vs. coilovers before I do.

I'm riding a little lower on my BC's that I have. Looks good though.

Might be safer to ride a little higher. I broke my CV boot and warped my wheel bearing.

That was expensive.

[normmynorm]

Ah, man bummer about having to shell out cash for that. How do you like the BC's?

Was lookin at Megan's a couple seconds ago. I think someone just dropped theirs using those.

Yo i got eibach springs its a nice drop i think its the same drop as the teins spring and there not that much money i think i paid 250 you can find them anywhere for the cheapest price i mean coilovers are expensive 800 to 1000 is alot if you really think about it lol thats why i went with springs drops good you deff feel the diffrence in the handling and brake also acceleration and plus im putting a raceline RSB so ima be good but if you got money to blow and you race and s*** than go with a good set of coilovers thats my opinion trying to help ya but if you decide spring go eibach !

[normmynorm]

Yeah, the springs for sure are way better on them pockets. I have 50k miles on my car, and I know shocks eventually have to be replaced around there or after. Shocks + springs are still cheaper than coils, but it's close. Factored that in to justifying spending the cash on the coils.

[jersey201AC]

Yeah my opinion go with eibach springs save your money and do other stuff to the car dude
