damn this car looks better and better every time i look at it.
both those sets of wheels looked really good.

im most likely gonna get a set of stance coilovers for my sc3. how do YOU like them? in comparison to the stock ride, i mean. obviously theyre not gonna be as... comfortable/soft as stock. but still, break it down for me pretty please if you dont mind.

in 09 i bought a set of pbm coilovers but later realized they were more sporty/stiff than i wanted/needed.

seems like stance is where its at.
in 06 i installed a set of megan streets on my s14 and i hate those mother ****ers. im getting stance for the s14 for sure.

I love them ! , I had mine about 3 years now and around 15 000 miles on them and they still feel great ! the same set i swap from all my cars , I really should buy another set some day for at least 1 of my other sc's
