Lowering springs..
Swifts or Tanabe, you cant go wrong. Dont listen to anyone that tells you to put TEIN springs on your car.
First thing you need to do after dropping it, is get an alignment though. It will actually handle worse until then.

Just did the change over from S-techs to the Swifts= swift rear sway bar..and it defintely handles 100% better. Dont do the teins!!
Install was pretty easy with a $40 electric impact wrench. Took me about 4 hours for install for first time attempt.

Before anyone asks why I'm selling my new springs, I got a great deal on some WORKS springs.

I live in the sticks and there's alot of open road around. Driving on curvy roads was very unpredictable/unsafe. The ride was harsh over bumps. The only positive thing i got out of it was the bad *** stance while parked. Just like the box says. "Dress up kit".
Now, along with the rear sway bar its completely night and day. It's not as low but, I really don't want to sacrifice performance over looks ANYMORE!!!
just my .02

HOTCHKIS!! I would consider looking at their springs as well. I have them and they handle close to stock and the drop is perfect IMO. People on here have had them for 20k even 30k miles and their struts are still good to go.



Already put 300 miles on it in 2 days...
