i got the H-Techs its not bad but then again its not great either. my front end is nicely dropped but the back end sits pretty high. i would have gone with S-Techs but i have a steep driveway so i went with H-Techs. Should of just saved for Teins SSP

Yea I cant use s techs because Id have rubbing issues and wouldnt work on my driveway, I scrape everytime with h techs already. S techs would be out of the question.

remember also if you have a lip it makes it that much harder to drive it over things.


yes h techs drop front lower than rear, itd be nice if the rear was a bit lower, but on the plus side it gives it a nice subtle rake look.

you guys need to learn how to drive, that is what's up. try driving on Spirints 2.5" drop all the way around with the RS1 front lip without scraping and then talk about being low, if you can't drive with s-tech nor with atleast h-tech then you need alot of practice.

my driveway? no way scraped my car even on stock height with stock wheels.

with s -techs it'd take my bumper off.

I scrap with h techs if I angle in going less than 1 mph.

if you want to just drop it yeah. but in the long run you're going to need to get new shocks cause your stockies wont last you that long on aftermarket springs.

they are lower and stiffer and it makes the shocks work even when at a complete stop so the shocks will bust faster.
