Wanna SLAM Saber

Hey,I wanna drop my Saber but cant afford Japanese suspension prices....whats a good set of lowering springs(not the mere 1.2 inch or 2.5 inch drop but something serious,like 4~6 inch drop)? Or even a set of coil-overs...I'm gonna be riding on factory rims for a while till Art-Factory gets me a sponsor for rims(will take time).Can someone please help me?

ground control coilovers or Skunk2. There are plenty of springs in Japan that we don't have here. Why not go for those? RSR has springs for the UA2 and is...i believe below 2" A lot of VIP cars (toyota celcior) have air suspension. Isn't it cheap there? Get air ride for your ua2!

Air Ride suspension like TLBaller said. If you are dropping 6 inches, you need some serious shocks, camber correction, fender rolling, ect.

There are springs here...in fact theres an ESPELIER factory/warehouse behind my apartment but all them coils are 2-inch drop.And they are not cheap.Lot of people think carparts are cheap in Japan but hell no! Lot cheaper in the States! The air-suspensions will cost me a MINIMUM of $5000.00 I may do a "NO-SUS"...no suspension....rigid...ride on bottomed out shocks...the tires will be the suspension.Lot of guys do that here just to do it...I'll go E-BAY then.
