Great looking ride. Very clean.
What'd you use to lower your car and by how much?

I say email the guy and try to bargain with him.... The springs are a bit hard but thats prabobly because of my shocks. With the shocks on full it gets really really hard lolz but corners beautifully.

yea since the rsr's are 1.5" and eibachs are like 1.0 or 1.2? they are a bit stiffer with my shocks set to the lowest settings its comparable to stock.
