tein
sorry guys barely have time to get on here but.....the drop for the tein s tech springs are 2.2 in the front and 1.8 in the rear the cost for the springs is $330.00 im debating wether i should get them or not. i hear its a bumpy ride if its not a smooth street and right now i cant afford coilovers lol... should i wait or just get them now??

That sounds like a pretty big drop, it will certainly put more stress on the struts. Realistically, the Tein coilovers would be a bumpy and very stiff ride so pick your poison. You could always wait and see if any other options come on the market.

Let's say the coilovers cost 1000$. Assuming a very small profit of 10%, the actual cost to make the coilovers is 900$. That 900$ has to cover the struts, the springs and the top mounts. 900$ isn't a lot of money to split between those 3 items, good struts alone can run over 900$.
I guess I'll keep the waiting game going

If you're going to get springs, go with either RRM or Robispec. They should be cheaper (and arguably better) than the Tiens, and considering how much RRM and Robi do for the Mitsubishi community, they are worth supporting.
