finally dropped

looks much better this way:



MR Bilstien and Espelir springs. Noticable difference in ride quality, so far all for the better.

Looks great, John! Sorry I never got you the ride on the SpecR's. My car was only running for about 2 weeks. I am pretty sure the problem is one of the lifters.

Yep, thanks for the headsup, this worked out nice.

no worries on the Spec-R ride! So far I'm happy with this combination.

Lifters is an easy fix! I have a brand new never used set of 3rd gen lifters in my spare parts stash.

I'm running the same setup and I have no complaints! Good setup before I decide to upgrade to coils.

I definately would like to further refine the "blacked out" look.

What does this stuff buy you? at this point I'm pretty content with the ride quality and performance of this setup. (of course that will probably change in a month )

It definately was a good improvement in ride quality over the stock AGX setup. I still haven't really pushed the cornering yet as I'm still feeling the car out. Initial impressions though are that it doesn't get quite so unsettled under hard cornering with bumps. When pushing the AGX setup, a hard bump in the middle/exit of a corner would really make the car "dance around"
