You can use a torque wrench, but i dont know the torque specs, you also need 21mm socket for the lug nuts. I am not sure about the springs rates. But the car rides stiffer.

BTW, thanks for your help.
Yea pretty much, you might also need 19mm or 17mm wrench for the rear bolt. The rear is easy, jus raise the back up high, so you can push the lower arm all the way down to remove the spring.
heres another pic of the drop

yea i got the alignment done on last thurs, everything was pretty much in spec, the front on both sides have 1 degree of neg camber, they adj. toe a little bit, on the rear they adj the camber on the rear right. After the alignment was done everything is in spec no need for alignment, i will post up the sheet soon.
Drop looks great! I like that it's a small drop.
Do you know the spring rates on the Impul springs and the sport springs?
how is the ride compared to the original sport springs? Stiffer? Same? can you feel every small bump on the road?
Thanks!
