Default Ummmmmmmm...drop, teins installed

I put these in last friday(tein cs), but didn't have time to post pic's. The ride is smooth like stock but with a lot more control. I want to thank slimj 281 for a fast and easy transaction. I want to even the car out more, but I don't have the wrenches . I gotta drop the front a little bit more, or raise the back. What do u think? 20's are next after income tax...lol

Looks good.. You needs the wrenches those are a must.. Why didn't they come with the Teins? The front does look a little high.. Car looks good for being stock..

Thanx, seller's mechanic lost em'. As soon as I get my hand's on those wrenches, the front is going down.

Default Drop!

The drop looks about right! Keep it there until you get those 20's and then do your final adjustments. The car will settle a little more on it's own at that ride height, so don't sweat it!

Very nice I think I'm going to go this route with my GS as well. Coilovers are the way to go.
