Default Stop, drop and roll..

After 2 hours of work (and half an hour of trying to figure out how to get the jack out from under the front of the car), the JIC Magic coilovers are on!









Next "stop" - 13" Wilwoods:

How much did you lower the car front & rear? 1", 1.5"??? Looks very good by the way, i can't stand it when people get aftermarket wheels & don't lower the car. Theirs nothing worse then having a 2" gap in the wheel wheels w/ a nice set of aftermarket wheels.

I think it's about 1.3" and 1.5" - the front dropped quite a bit, but I found (the shock - the horror) that the spring spacers were still in the front. I'm going to drive it like it is and see how it suits before deciding to bring it up any more.



Bah! Ground clearance is for trucks

That is REALLY nice.....I would however beat down the Honda dealer that left those spacers in there....it probably ruined your OEM springs and shocks to drive on them for as long as you did. They are not supposed to stay in there for any longer than transport to the dealer. GRRRRRR.

Thanks - I'm pleased with how it's coming along. Mugen hood's on its way this week - then the exterior mods to my little desecration will be almost complete!

Yeah, the dealer leaving them is just messed up. Bad part is that I'm not sure how far its dropped now... I only wanted to go about an inch, and for all I know it could be an inch now... no clue how much height the spacers were adding.
