I am really interesting in handling in our cars. Right now i just got my still swaybars and i love them! I want to lower my car and i think i am going to stay away from coil overs because there so expensive. how much did your h&r springs cost you and the spc camber kit

I think you need to update your mod list.

Just saw this resurrected but I was curious if the techs, I am guessing from Stillen, verbalized the reason to skip on the Z Tokicos? Trying to get a consensus as some advise using the Z struts/shocks with any aftermarket or Z spring while others advocate the G part number. I know the rod would be even shorter with the Z versus the G part numbers but it would seem more ideal to match them up.
