how's the ride? but the pics may be a bit misleading since the angle of view is different in the second pic (lower coupe). the angle of the second view is higher and will give the appearance that the car is lower or that there is less space in the wheelwell.

but, nice ride dude.

Yeah, I'm bummed about losing my brembos when i traded up, but on the bright side, my pads won't wear out so quickly.

unless you're going to the track quite often, the only benefit with the brembos is the look. the cons are more brake dust, needs replacement more often than stock brakes, and cost of replacement. BUT, i sure love the look of the brembos...oh well: (

maybe it's me but looks more like an 1.5" drop in the front.
Does the '05 models sit higher the '04/'03's? or is it just me?

lucino- the eibachs are "average" 1" drop. it was more like 1.5 inch on mine.
reason why im using the S-techs up front (better spring rate too on front
vs Eibach front) with -1.2" drop.

The rear eibachs on mine are -1.4"

my car sits completely flat.

Thanks for the responses guys! Sorry I didn't take the exact angle on the pictures, but trust me when I say, it was definitely a drastic change for the better The wheel gap is gone and the ride is very nice!!
