OEM shocks w/ Tein S-Tech Springs

Back to OEM shocks because of my back issues. However, I installed Tein S-Tech springs on them, which lower by only .7/.5. Why? Coilovers were too stiff and too low. I always had back issues, but since I bought the car it was a worst but not too much... but on coilovers it's just hurting too much. So of course I would have raise the car and change stiffness settings but what's the point to have coilovers w/o any drop or so.... so that's why I decided to go back on OEM shocks with springs that does not lower that much. I got my money back lol didn't loose too much.

My BC Racing BR Type coilovers are sold.

I will install an engine torque damper in a few days

 

To each their own but it looks like you're starting to run out of things to mod and it's pushing the overdone envelope.

 

It's a bit true, that's why I need to put cash aside and then buy a SC

 

Or might sell the car early next year and buy something else hehe Will see...

 

Do you have issues with your engine rocking, your master cylinder flexing, or the core support flexing? Those are the three most useless parts you could buy for a car. I agree sounds like you are just starting to throw parts for the sake of saying you are modding it to each their own but I would put illest stickers on my car before any of those mods
