no, IIRC the only way is you mod the coupe one.

why cant you install yourself? especially if its just the basic one, super easy shouldn't more than an hour, don't be afraid to try

young is no excuse lol, I installed mine when i was 18 and did it off of a youtube video plus there are a ton of DIY's here in driver. All it for the basic is taking off the top half of the plenum, putting longer bolts through the center of it with spacers on the inside, then screw all back toghether (thats the short of it). Get a friend and an hour or two of time and you;ll be fine.

Anyone using the ARP Wiper Bolts? The stock flange bolts have a wider base then the ARP ones, just wondering if anyone is running it with a washer or not.

i have a few questions

i just lowered my car on tein cs coilovers about 2 weeks ago, i just got my spc toebolts in the mail today (i will be running oem camber) but dont have time or tools to put them on right now. i just looked at the inside of my tires and they are wearing pretty quickly from the toe. so my questions are..

if i raise my coils back up will it bring me back to specs?
should i put spacers on b4 an alignment?
or can i just put spacers on after an alignment?

im lowered about 2 inch in the front and about 2 in the rear.
