Jasper: not even close to being maxed out on these coilovers, they can go pretty low.

Ethan: thanks! it complements the color of the car nicely :D

I like the Greddy SE. I'd get that for my car if I decide to get an exhaust for my car.

Thanks guys.

@ CleanFMtC- The buddyclubs are holding up pretty good, I'm happy with them. Did you ever figure out how to maintain preload while lowering it more in the rear?

@ dropzone- They're the WW 17s, I might go a little lower but might have some rubbing issues since I went with 215/45 tires instead of something smaller.

you can probably lay the front on the ground if you wanted with these coilovers and the I think I have like another 1.5" of thread left for the rears.. so it can go pretty low

Hey man, how's it going? I think I may have lost your number. Any progress since your wheels? It looks fresh

Just because they don't slam for the factory doesn't mean you can't make them slam ;D

Hey Fred, I'll PM ya.

No real progress other than my car got owned in LA last week. Hit a pot hole while making a U turn and that buckled my passenger front fender.. So I've been trying to fix that, pulled out the dent but now I need to paint it.. It's still uneven/wavy but much better than it was before.

I'll update with some pictures eventually.. it's too hot to go out and take pictures haha.

TRD93- I still have the 5zigens sadly.. I need to sell those since school is starting soon >_<
