Sorry for lack of scenery. Or for lack of picture quality.
Duc over at Spugen did the install. Great job by the way.







Car was low!!! It barely went up my driveway. However, the ride quality was almost stock like, but firmer. However, i still raised it up about 2 inches (didnt take pics yet). So now it clears everything fine. Haven't really played around with the dampening, set it at 5 in front and 8 in back (out of 9 clicks with 9 being soft). Drove about 100+ miles (freeways/streets) on the setup already. Ride quality is excellent. Others can't even tell a more firmer suspension is in there. No noises, no rattles. Took it up to the local twisties and drove it pretty aggressive, I was very impressed. Great looks, great ride quality, and pretty good price. A very good alternatives to buddy clubs, teins, etc.

Nice drop. Looks great.

When you do start playing with the settings, Try stiffening the fronts a bit more and leaving the rears at around 6-7. The car will like the stiffer front end. Let us know how it responds to the changes. I would say it is an outstanding alternative to the JDM coilovers. Much better, IMO.

Looks great. Please post more info and pictures once you play around with the dampening a bit.
