our cars are VERY low to begin with ..

 

I've seen other RA's in person and mine is lower. I can just about fit a finger between the wheel and the fender.


btw....noticed the led strip in your sig. are they push button, or wired to come on at specific times....if push button, do you ever actually use them?

 

when you talk about not getting a finger in the wheel are you talkign abotu the back or front ? if you mean the front then yeah your lower but my rear a finger cant fit in lol

and they are actually wired to a toggle switch by the drivers side one of them is broken but once it gets warmer im going to replace them, and yeah i use them all the time lol, it looks sweet

 

yeah cause i noticed the led strips are a pretty cheap mod. so i was thinking of maybe doing it sometime...

my front i was talking about. my back i can fit a finger under. I should post a pic. I wonder if a new set of springs will lower the back some.

 

idk my back is pretty danm low already, and yeah its a cheap mod, takes a little time to do tho, i have a toggle switch so they arent always on , i mean you can have them go on when the car starts too if you wanted

 

I can't seem to find a set that are black in color unless they ate stock and cut, bit I see your car is lower than stock, so I haven't a clue of the make. The stock rear is low to start with but very bouncy, and bottoms out easily. The progress kit I have bumps it up an inch I'd say , although they say it lowers it .5 inches. What brand are you planning on running?

 

How did you do the ipod hookup???

 

not sure if i'll get any soon, but if i do, i was thinking maybe the s. techs from RRM or ebay, if i can find them cheaper. I dunno if the struts were ever replaced and i'm at 160,000km so i might just get coilovers at some point....issue is just money. My next things are jsut getting the timing belt/spark plugs replaced and fixing my rough idle. A paint job in the spring, and installing my projectors which should be here next week.

 

if your looking for s. techs, go some where other then just rrm, or ebay, there are plenty of reputable sites that sell authentic tein springs for a great price, and if your just going to get coilovers one day might as well just skip the springs, save a few extra hundred bucks and just get coilovers, no need to spend money to just get something better later that you can get for a few extra $$ and some more time. plus if you dont plan on auto x'ing your car, and just want the drop for the looks, just get the springs.
