car looks clean. i think a lip and 99-00 tails would make it look alot cleaner imo. i pretty much got the same thing as you except mines vsm and im rollin on 16's! but over all clean car.

i think i'm at about 2 1/4 drop, it rides really nice for a lowered car, corners like a champ too. i have to raise the right side up a bit i think, i had my umm... chubby friend with me and it was rubbing on hard corners with bumps.

i think you can adjust the drop from 1-3 inches

yeah its a 1-3 inch interval, but the dampers are shorter than the stock cushions so you're sittin' a bit lower than you would think. Man, I cant wait until all my bullshit gets straightened out so that I can jump back into tuning like i want

think about his car with a lip and sideskirts painted.....it'll look quite a bit lower. You need to work on your invisioning skillz

yeah...peole dont look at all the factors......size of rims, damper hieght, the ride hieght is measured in approx., its a new set-up so they haven't really setteled yet, and you might not even want to be that low to begin with.

*its funny how everyone thinks you should build/tune they way they would. :roll:
