very effective pics . for someone who is not the DIY type spring installs can be fairly difficult, especially if you dont have the right tools.

so after putting on the springs did you buy any camber kits or anything else besides the springs?

Nope not yet. I want them to be totally settled before I do anything else to them so I know exactly what I need.

PhxBlue,

Your car looks great with those springs! Have you noticed a big difference in the handling and ride? I am trying to decide on some springs for my coupe, and wondered if you could add some enlightenment? Do you expect you will have to upgrade shocks and other parts of the suspension system since lowering the car?

It rides great still. A lil bit stiffer but not uncomfortable by my standards. My father whom is 60 years old has ridden in it and says its still comfortable as well. The stock shocks will wear out faster and I will have to spend some money to get the camber back in spec but thats about it that I can think of.

Very nice subtle drop. Do you have anything to adjust the toe and cambers? Is it within the alignment specs? I've been debating on what kind of springs/coilovers to get.

You get some rub action with these springs. I ended up taking them out a while back for some Tanabe's.

I dunno if anyone really cares or not for a post of this kind but when I was studying springs I wanted a lil more tecnical or visual help on my decisions. Hopefully these pics will help other people trying to decide on springs.

Front before and after.



Rear before and after

Why aren't other 3 pictures aren't working? I wanna see the difference.
Thanks
