Thanks Diablo, I can't wait to see how it will turn out. May I ask why you want to continue using your A-spec wheels? Please don't hesitate to shoot me a pm when you order your new mods. What color do you have in mind? White!!!!

Another question...

Since RL doen't have a strut assembly in the rear..

is the coil-over kit (rear competent) still is separate shock and spring ??

seems like you have dropped the height in the rear.. how did you adjust this?? Is the perch unit mounted/part of the new spring??

Thanks-Deep

That's correct. Strut and springs are install separately like OEM. The height gets adjusted on the springs and damping can either be manually or with a EDFC mounting inside the cockpit.

Car looks amazing. I'm just admiring all the possibilities of these cars since I plan on coming out of my car (Lexus GS) and plan on purchasing an '05 with really low miles. How is the ride with the CS coilovers? Any knocking or noises inside the cabin? Will the car's ride be comprimised? I won't be doing a lot of spirited driving, but I want to eliminate the gap in the wheel wells. Thanks for the info, and keep up the great work on your RL.

Thank you and welcome to the forum. I don't have any issues with my Tein coilovers sport and they're better than OEM. Also it has damping levels which can be adjusted manually or with a EDFC to your like. If you're looking for a RL try looking for a 2006 to 2008. Good luck. Do a search in the forum about 2005 models and see what are the things you need to look for before buying.

Yes I'd have to agree with BlazingGT. Best RL on the Forum HANDS DOWN.
Plus the PWP with Ebony interior is the best color scheme.
Im just noticing this now but why didnt you go with the Mugen Trunk Lip? IMO its much better than OEM

haha, New change of plans. trying to buy another car, but the RL will be my side car. I love the aspec wheels. very durable and i drive not caring about scratching or bending the wheel. plus when cops pull me over, they see that these wheels are stock and i don't look like the racing type. the mugen kit with stock wheels will look sweet. i still haven't decided on color yet. i like white alot, i had a crazy dream of my rl being white with hot pink wheels lol maybe its a sign.
