it's the same height. There is no height discrepancy between AP2 shocks and CR shocks. I think it's a matter of photography. I've see Avlin's Set up in person and the height is identical to mine. I blame adrs2k's brilliant photography skills. Either way I love this drop and my current set up is by far the best handling set up I've had.

I also put on the RPF1s as well to see if I like the look. In person, the car looks awesome. In pictures...not so much.

From an asthetic view, the car looks amazing. I think the car sits at a perfect height. Its not too low nor is it too high. The photos below are the before and after. I tried to get the best possible photos with accurate distance, angle, and shot overal. As you can tell..i failed miserably. Another car was in the garage so I had limited space after I finished up.

Took me a total of 1.5 hours to do all 4 corners with the majority of the time working on the rear driver side. That side is a pain in the ass!

Enjoy... (Keep in mind, it is winter here and we a good amount of snow on the ground so the photos are horrid).

And there she is..


Fenders are stock. Not rolled, rear tabs not relocated, etc. I was able to move the car from this garage to the other garage for storage with no rubbing.


Wat a big change

Yep! Great guys and great work there. I'm bringing my car back for an alignment again soon since I got a great trade for KW V3s.

Nice! Haha I was there all day yesterday getting my coils installed and alignment done (was on Swifts previously). I bring it up because Mike was telling me "This dude with a White S2000 came in, had a wing that probably cost a million dollars looked like a straight up racecar" then I saw your picture and connected the dots lol. Yeah I agree, definitely great work and down to earth cool guys. Jealous of the KW V3s
