i really wish someone local had a set of coilovers on their g; specifically these ones so i could get a ride. i had a set of buddy club coilovers on my wrx and it basically gave me a headach from the bounciness and stiffness. since the G already comes with sport suspension and a harsh ride with 19's...i was wondering if the ride quality could be that much worse, granted its not slammed just "tastefully" dropped?

Data Systems R-Spec - relatively rare compared to the popular Gialla Corsa.

Our forum sponsor Ionic will be released a replica of this (Data) grille soon. Keep an eye out for it.

If a drop is more important to you than tracking the car, then its a good choice.

I was going to go with the Basics, but knowing that I was still going to upgrade in the future, I went directly with far superior coilovers. They are more than twice the price, but worth more than twice the money

yea calvin I have to say your car looks pretty sick.....The front is perfect for me but I would want to drop the back a little more......

By the way calvin did you need a camber kit for the rear or did you just get an alignment?....
