if you set teins at their highest adjustment, you will be higher than stock i think.

you will be higher than stock for sure. Also you will need a camber kit if you set the height the directions give you.

thanks, wow i never realized that tein brings you up wow.... so lets say if i drop only about an 1 inch will i need the camber kit.... also the ride with teins, whats the deal with comfort and stability... i am sure it will be much firmer which i would like over stock... also should i get comptech or hr sways... i heard hrs give you lil more, thicker right??? also i was looking at kazera or kosei wheels (18s) they are pretty damn light kazera only at 20lbs and kosei at 16lbs, what you think any other suggestions.

everyone's car is different - why not install the coilovers and lower/raise(?) it to the height you want - and then figure out if you need a camber kit or not.... seems as if you don't even want to lower your car to begin with, so why not leave the suspension stock?

i'm running tein ss with 2 fingers all the way around. I didn't get a camber kit because its only -.1 degress of the oem spec for the left, and the right is within the range. I guess i got lucky
