ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

          Have you tried searching? I have noticed that you have already made two seperate threads about topics which I know have been discussed in the past on this forum. Beginners Guide to Modification is always a good place to start. There are a ton of Stickies that have all kinds of great information. The stickies will save you the time of having to create a new thread and then wait for an answer.

          I have Tein S-tech's on my CB. I paid $110 Shipped off ebay. You have to remember Struts also. I am still riding on my stock struts and have not had any trouble yet. I know it is just a matter of time before one of my OEM struts decides that enough is enough.

              I went with the tokico blue with tokico springs, it only lowered my car about 1.25 inches but the ride is great. But if want lower than that Tein is a good bet.

                Don't just post to get your count up... that'll get you banned real quick.


                Be careful with Tein products on ebay. There has been a rash of fake Tein stuff being sold lately.


                If you only have $200 to spend on lowering your car... don't. You should replace your shocks at the same time. Lowering on stock shocks is a bad idea (yes, people do it.. the idiots will come in here arguing with me as they usually do... but it's an incredibly stupid thing to lower on stock shocks. Unsafe, uncomfortable, and worthless in terms of performance.)

                          it depends what you want for your car. there are a ton of setups available. from what i've heard, the Super Cup Kit from Neuspeed is great. Neuspeed race springs and Koni yellow shocks. i think it's like $600 or around there directly from them. thats what i plan on getting eventually. check his thread out too:

                          it'll help you out and teach you a bunch about the suspension of your car.
