toeb: nice work on the install!! thats pretty low with the bushings. when i installed the air and left the bushings in.. the car sat SUPER high. but all the bushings are removed in the rear as of yesterday.
car info. gs400. 19x9 +24 19x10+20 with a extra 15mm spacer all around. Tires: 245 30 or 35 (dont remember)fronts and 275-30 for the rear. fender shaved, pulled (pretty much a flare). UAS kit with Bilstein sports Struts. any other info just ask.
here are some pics.
i need to get a smaller exhaust pipes. rear of the car is almost resting on exhaust pipes.
keep in mind i ONLY worked on the rears.. fronts are still kinda high.
Drive height.
My main goal for this was to drive at a low height and park even lower
(if there are typos please excuse me, didnt bother proof read
)

Now Im going to be using my stock struts with the UAS kit, not my HKS's. When I called UAS they said that they need my HKS's so they could make a bracket. I said nevermind, I'll go ahead and use my factory struts. Will I still be able to get as low as lightwave???

hehe. thanks guys.
i like the 2 tone look for now. i think its different.
as for being able to go low. my rears are on bilstein Sports and i am custom making some brackets to replace the lower spring (bag) mount for my car to sit about another 1 inch lower. these pieces will just slide right onto the strut. getting CNC done as we speak.
BippuPxr: set up a hangout day! and i will be there.
