    spring dilemma... =p

    ok, so i've been riding on Skunk2 lowering springs and KYB GR-2s for a WHILE now and i'm just starting to have a conflict....the car's TOO low ..... at first it was cool, but now settled it's CRAZY low in the front How did i realize this? i bought a header no more than a couple months ago and guess what..... it BROKE. the bracket that bolts on to the block broke right of the header itself from all the bumpage lol

    i was actually looking into some of these now:
    Tein H. Tech
    Eibach Pro-kit
    Neuspeed Sport
    H&R sport

    can i get some detailed feedback on these? specially the Tein H. Tech. i saw some decent info on the rest of them, but unfortunately, i flipped through the WHOLE "what setup are you running" thread and only found 1 person with 'em and he doesn't have a MR thread....

    ps. pix would be R E A L L Y appreciated

    Thnx!

      SUPPOSEDLY 2.00 - 1.80", but apparently, my two front tires kinda tuck in the front(can't fit a finger between wheel/fender) and the back has about .75-1" gap....

        i like the sport drops cause they allow the car to fully be utilized and driven hard with little regard for touching ground./

              hmm... i'm liking that by the looks of it i'm guessing no clearance problems right? what shocks were you using? and uncut bump stops or no? and is that settled or just installed?

                really it dropped that low? Unless you blew the shock or install wrong. Mine 2.25 and on stock shock its not too low IMO. Click my sig to go to MR thread.

                    Theres your problem. Buy new ones and it will fix the ride height issue.
