I was just gonna try koni yellows on their lowest perch. Thats about .75" lower and that way you keep the ride nice and compliant and have konis which are always good.

I do like my 4x4 in a way because it lets the car ride fast over shitty roads and i dont bottom out at high speed like other people might. Im not into the "slammed" look at all.

Slammed = gh3y imo.

Although I'd like to loose an inch or so all the way around...I could double fist the front gap...lolz.

I think I'm gonna try a set of those cheap teins and see what they do on the car.

the cheap teins the green ones? they drop the car around 1-1.5". friend of mine had those on his S and he was lower then i was. i had about 1" drop. it might even settle to 1.75-2" drop. i cant remember, and the car was stolen, so i cant check dont get me wrong though, it looked awesome, and was not slammed. very little wheel gap, but no tuck.

My car is on the teins. They are just a *little* stiffer than stock, but my car still has no problem hooking up (granted I am not making the power a lot of you are). I'm sure the Star Specs don't hurt either as they are pretty damn sticky. As far as how low it is... not slammed, but I think the look is about perfect...



All that said, I do definitely look forward to getting some coilovers (and a front swaybar) at some point in time to stiffen up the cornering a bit.

That's what I have and love them!

Only thing I would want over them is a set of Belstein PSS9 coilovers. I would like onther .5 or a little less drop in addition to the Eibach drop. Don't want to pony up the 1200 for the PSS9s though!

From what I've read, the teins are 1"

The front has the biggest gap, with the rear alot closer.

I wish the car had a nice "rake" to it...front lower than rear, I think that would look sexy.

Anyway, I am gonna bite the bullet and grab em.

They are less than 200, and then we can talk camber adjustments when I go in for my alignment.

STOCK CAMBER. you will hear otherwise, but stock camber gives longest life for tires. uk specs or more aggressive eat tires faster.

with coilovers you could get the rake you desire
