Installed today - car is UTTERLY composed.

The rear end is no longer loose, has a very solid feel, steering is more stable.

The stiffness isn't felt unless you're on pretty solid bumps, then its a bit worse.

Lowered about 1" front and rear.

Definately worth it - fairly transparent for a big gain in performance.

 

pics please!

 

whats the maximum you can lower those? I was planning to purchase those next month.

 

As much as you want - they're fully adjustable. I lowered 1 inch front and rear and the gap is perfect - one finger.

 

Great to hear, Cretinx. You have the exact set-up I'm purchasing next month.

Was the wheel hop reduced much?

 

great sounds like a steal then. Thanks!

 

Centrix, where did you get the tein basic from?

 

Neat

Front and rear sway bars? Or just rear?

How little is the car lowered with the coil overs? I know I'm going the other way, but I'm enjoying driving a car that doesnt' scrape its nose on everything in sight.
