so when all was said and installed...i drove it around and tore it back down. fronts were bouncy as all s**t, replaced the DZ on the fronts and cranked it all the way to 4 stiffness. Rears are now the blue ones. rides BEAUTIFUL.

these are with the blue springs without leveling anything out.




with the dropzones on the front and no adjustments yet






and after everything was set and adjusted








im letting the rears settle and then it needs to come up a little cause its lower than the fronts, cause ive got the fronts maxed...

the best setup would be Koni yellow shocks or KYB AGX shocks, with Ground control coil overs.

problem is when you lower the car its gona feel much stiffer. you can use off the shelf rates for the ground controls, that'll give you a nice comfortable ride.

p.s. CLEAN ASS 3rd GEN in your avatar.
