hi guys..

as u guys may know..ive been debating on getting tein cs for my car.. can you guys give me some input on how well the car will drive w/ the tein cs for the sc430 from 1-10 being 1 the worst and 10 being best..

im not into getting the car lowered..this isnt much of an importance..just a lil not much though.

the most concern i have is the drive.

thanks guys.

if tein usa doesn't have any, then no one can get any.

unless you go tein japan, buy it there, and air ship it here, where you will never see the 1300 price tag
