I don't waste people's time. My answer IS helping if you have a clue. Try to pay more attention in the future...
I'm really happy that you and Dafarmer have known each other for a long time. If you read the initial post, the comment is that he is not happy with the height of his car. He is not asking you to go down a road of how it is for stance etc. etc. so maybe you could pay a little more attention in the future and be helpful instead telling me i am not paying any attention.

We look to you guys for help with our questions not more validation of why people are afraid to post because of comments like yours. Have a coke and a smile buddy.

Though warrtalon comes off as an ***, he's usually pretty knowledgable. Take his advice Take a look at the picture I posted. Is your car that same ride height? If not, you may need to drive around for a bit and settle the suspension. The second you lower the car, it will not be at it's permenant height.

You did however choose the best lowering springs possible. Just don't go with S-tech's. I have S-techs and they're garbage. They don't ride bad, the don't nessacerily look bad either, but they handle VERY bad. I'd advise against them if buying them crossed your mind.

Good luck

Megan, Ksport, BC Racing, and the cheapest of all Omnipower. Search them and see what people say about them.

Ksport is garbage.

honestly the best way to get a set of good coilovers for a good price is the for sale forums, there are a lot of good deals in there as people routinely buy evos, mod the crap out of them and discover they cant afford the car anymore.

the downside is that you have to wait for the deal to come, i picked up a set of HKS RS coilovers for $600, they will suffice for now untill i step up to some ohlins or robispec KW's

Oh and although warrtalon is quite abrasive, his info is usually good

He asked for reasonable prices. It's his job to search and see what people say about them

The best is what you think it is. It's your goal, your driving style and your satisfaction. Take a ride with a colleague to sample his/her suspension setup. The rest is only bench racing.
