Recently I lowered my '02 with kg/mm dr21 race springs, and koni adjustable shocks. Overall ride quality is increased, and handling seems to be bettter, although I have not tried it very much b/c I have not had it aligned up since the drop.

Pics removed for tonight, take some more tommorow, since the others I lowered it quit a bit more by changing the perch on the koni's to the second notch.

What do you think?

Yeah still seems high to me? I was under the understanding that the race springs left a one finger gap. Are you sure these aren't the street springs?

I don't think they have settled good yet, I just put them on Wed, I may move the purch on the shocks to the 2nd setting, for another 1/2 inch or so drop once I get some new wheels, I was thinking it should be lower also.

ugotmade .. How do you go with the aligning the wheels..... I just got the ZEAL B2 Shocks and srpings.. built..! And I already have H&R lowering springs.. Right now the car is more lowered from the back.. and the wheels bent in slightly more than yours..!( I can notice that yours are up straight) and it handles very bad as I drove it in AutoX.

Tommorrow I will install the ZEAL B2... do u know how to set it up. (The alingment).. help me plz

Thanks

Today I moved the shocks to the second notch and it is a LOT lower now. I guess with the '02 and koni shocks you have to change notch to the 2nd one to get it to lower correctly. I will post pics when the sun comes back out tomorrow.
