Thumbs up My EVO...

here's a few shots of the EVO after i installed the Eibach ProKit... i would have liked the front to come down another .25", but it's definitely an improvement over stock... and the car still handles the same as before, which it the MOST important part...

As much as you pissed me off a couple days ago, I must admit that the lowered evo looks bad-***.

front was like 1.2", the rear was about 1"...

uneven fenders create the difference in wheel gap... but i like the extra travel room up front although i would like it to look even...

can't win them all...

looks great - definitely what the car needed

here goes the 21 questions

- how much
- where ya get em from
- have u been to the dealer to here them ***** about it?
- have you realigned the car and if so do the adjustments still reach within spec?

if the price is right and the car can be realinged back to factory spec i think ill go for them + chrome the stock wheels. that would be awesome, oh yeah tints too. DONT TAKE MY FRIGGIN IDEA NOW

got the springs from z1auto.com ask for ADAM...
I think they were $450 shipped...
the DEALER installed them for me...
Alignment is being done Wednesday when the Volks go on...

The dealer claimed that the alignment was unneeded, but i'm going to have it rechecked anyhow...

DEFINITELY RECHECKKKKKKKKKKKK. when i got my civic they lowered it with the 18's from the dealer and it went str8 and didnt pull so i assumed they had it aligned. rightttttttt, i brought it back in after having drivin another Si and it was WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY off. one of my front tires was visibly more worn on the inside than the other. the camber was way off mainly, but the toe in was also hella off. it was like a totally different car. it was so different and so better, i got pissed at the dealer for tellin me it was all good and drivin it for like 3000 miles screwin up the tires.

Looks nice!!! Wow the dealer did it. So I guess they will still warranty the car? or will they just void the warranty on the suspension and keep the rest of the car under warranty?
