wow nice rides ! love it!

Here's mine, just gave it a good wash! I went a little lower on the tanabe . It's not slammed but this is my drive height. I would have never guessed but I don't even need to go into driveways at angles. Rides amazing for the drop.

Have you tried lowering it first with the rods/sensors Dave?

Mine is a DD also and it's low enough-even have some hard times getting in/out of driveways

Yeah, this thread is turning out pretty good

Sorry, I don't have the datasystem so I wouldn't know.

I was talking about having it lowered through the rods and sensors.

Any of the fellows here know the answer to that?

I usually like the rear to be slightly higher than the front. I hate having a saggy a$$
