Thx. I love it. It feels like I have a brand new car, it is a totally different look. I also had gt3 swaybars in it and now I have to learn how to drive it. The tail seems to slide out all the time now

Nice stance. How do you like the Techart springs? I plan to do the same rather than going all the way to coilovers as I don't track my car. It sounded like it would only drop the car 1.25" all the way around but you are nicely slammed. They didn't cut the springs at all? Looks good.

Thanks. I love my techart springs so far, my old shocks were shot so the ride is actually better than before so in my book they're really comfortable too . yea they're stock (non-cut) techart springs.

looks good. sliding rear bad. sounds like your rear sway bar is too stiff for the rest of your setup.

Thanks alot! I really love the look, it is really LOW. I was walking up to it today in a parking lot and the front reminded me of a GT1. I didn't measure the gap before, but I think it was over 2 inches(is that about stock gap??) now its like negative half an inch.

The car is really slammed I'm not sure why tho. I think techart says it should only lower the car just over an inch, and this is a lot lower. I know the springs are euro techart spings maybe that might be why. Also the shocks I guess are sport shocks?? does that make it lower?

Either way I'm really happy with it!
