Stock height on 18's. I have lowered a car before, I do not think I will do it again. Tires wore out because the car would not align and car scraped everything.

I'm modifying my exhaust and air intake on my CR soon but I will not touch my suspension. Obviously the car looks cooler lowered but you'll be sacrificing a lot of comfort. If you don't get the spacers, you may wear out the axles quicker as well. The streets in NJ are not very smooth so I'll leave my CR @ stock height(plus I don't want to scrape my lip). The choice is yours:comfort or looks? As far as Type 1 Racing parts, I heard they were all good pieces. After comparing the welds on T1R(Canada) versus Japanese exhausts like Greddy or J's Racing, I'm convinced that I'll spend my $ on JDM exhaust.

stay stock, buy koni yellows, you will own AutoX events as for exhaust, not much of a power gain for our cars...... if you want to sound good go for it or if you plan on doing bigger power mods. and look into Amuse..... IMO better than t1r

T1R exhausts can be purchased from Canada but it's still a Japanese company. The parts from Japan are imported to Canada. Technically still somewhat JDM just a northern distributor in Canada from A J racing. LOL or am I wrong?

i believe they are made in taiwan. AJ racing and Evasive Motorsports sell their products (T1R is AJ racing's house brand).
