i know what you mean. myself and a friend did my lights and it took forever, but the results are worth it imo and it's better than paying $150 or whatever people charge to do it for you.

Wow great numbers. I just felt like doing this because I want to get the Tein Flex's also. I took the first pic and photoshopped it so its slammed.



I did this before scrolling down and seeing the new rims . Whoops. Just thought I'de share.

So what's your opinion on the Tein flex's since you've had them for a while. I'm really lookin into some suspension and the flex's really have caught my eye, really like the Idea of the EDFC. My factory struts w/ lowering springs are about to get on my last nerve. mainly cause the struts are most likely damaged from road construction.

The city was trying to fix some uneven pavement on a few of the interstate bridges. Right before they paved them, they had the road shaved down about 2.5-3.5 inches lower then the bridge and it didn't have any kinda of warning about it. I was crusing about 75 and it was dark out. I didn't see the bump till it was too late, I hit it doing about 70, this was a bump almost as big as a speed bump. Granted the struts didn't have much dampening to soak it up and I though for sure that the tires had blown out, but luckly enought they didn't.

Please give me your honest opinion on the coilovers. thanks and your car looks great.

Flex's have treated my car pretty well.. For daily driving and occasional track use this is the best bang for the buck. I use the EDFC all the time. It makes life real easy. When Im cruising around town I set it to 16/16 and it rides as soft as stock. At the Highway 8/8 and track 2/2. It's awesome to be able to switch on the fly. As a matter of fact I even bought my setup as a used package and it came off an EVO VII. Goes to show how reliable and trouble free they are.
