Default Finally TEIN CS and EDFC Today!

I'm psyched, my TEIN CS and EDFC are being installed today! No more 4WD appearance for my car and good bye to that stock suspension feeling ( too soft and bouncy for me ). Still waiting for my bodykit but this will certainly make the car look and feel better, can hardly wait until tonight. Pics later.

For ease of mounting and reverting back to stock, I chose DGOT20's location - right below the key/ignition area. Obviously there have been some creative and masterful installs here at CL that look very good. Who knows maybe someday I'll relocate it, but for now it's going below the ignition.

Default WooHoo

Got the car back with the TEIN CS and EDFC. All I can say is woohoo! So much better than the stock set-up. I was really getting fed-up with the mushy ride and the tall look of the car. Having come from a L Tuned set-up on my last GS I can say I really like the TEIN feel and the ability to adjust the damping. Car looks and feels so much better Can you tell I like this set-up? Anyway I'm not too low and I plan on letting things settle a few days before I possibly drop a little bit further. I really don't want to get too radical because this car is my daily driver and I can't afford to be replacing tires too often. Right now it looks good relative to camber and I will test it by lowering some more after it settles. Thanks to CL members for helping me make a good, informed decision on suspension. Pics below

Bluelex, I'm in your neck-of-the-woods - Wellington ( where I live ) and I work in Jupiter. Maybe you, Johnee and myself can get together some Sat or Sun afternoon. I'd definitely like to check out both yours and Johnee's rides!
