Yep you can feel the difference, not drastically, but it climbs a little harder and smoother in the Vtec zone.

Damn, I hate when you guys post pics of your ABP -- makes me wish I had gotten that instead of DEP. Damn wife talked me out of it. ABP is definitely a sweet color. But the only one I've seen on the road looked like sh!t. I think the guy was washing it w/ a Brillo pad or something -- only a few months old and the thing had the worst swirl marks I've ever seen.

Thanks for the TL-S rims.

That is a nice looking car, and those chrome rims look great with the blue and the under body kit. Contrary to others' opinions, I don't think you should drop it at all!

Thanks for the feedback... It's really cool to finally have a car to be excited about again. Not since my '85 RX-7 in college have I had this feeling.

I'll have to think long and hard about slammin' it. Is a lowering kit costly/labor intensive? What's the vendor of choice for components. I'm just thinking a 1 or 2 inch drop, nothin too radical. I'm sure I've seen another thread somewhere around this topic... if I can only find it....

Lowering isn't too costly at all. Springs will run you from $115 to $270 for the springs and $200+ for labor. Love mine, for the money its the one thing that you will notice the impact of the most.
