Im going to go stiff with the next coilover setup. I was thinking maybe about 16k/12k. that way when i go lower, i dont have to worry about bottoming out

Nice. Im in between going stiff or thinking of going with the 12/10 setup. I would like a nice balance so im a lil lost on which setup to go with. Looking forward to see how that setup will work for you. Btw your car is on point!

had i not been slammed i wouldnt go as stiff but i need it to keep from bottoming out. so im hoping it works out. my homie here did 18k/12k on his SC300 and that and the is350 are close in weight, and he loves it. it just sucks PBM doesnt make coils for the 2IS

thanks again though man

If you go the WALD spoiler route, will you go with the roof spoiler too?

honestly i dont want both. ive always had an image of one or the other. so it was either wald trunk and no roof spoiler, or a Lexon roof spoiler and no wald trunk.

but since the wald is more realistic and closer to me, that will be coming soon

Took this pic this past weekend at the "Sin City Affair" aka 2014 Royal Origin Anniversary Meet. Had a blast seeing all the homies from Royal Origin and Wrong Fitment Crew
