taken from horsepowerfreaks.com:

HR TL Sport Kit Stage 2 Springs
When you want to get serious, H&R Sport Springs are the hot setup. These are H+R's most popular springs - they lower your machine an average of 1.5 - 2.0 inches (depending on make and model) for improved handling, better aerodynamics and a simply outrageous look. Each spring is tuned for that elusive combination of shifter-kart handling and a controlled, yet comfortable ride (about 25-30% stiffer than stock).

yea, this is basically my last mod. I mean I still want new rotors, pads, calipers, exhaust, and a new paint job but it's time to start saving money instead of spending it. lol

Your car is still going to sag in the back, thats why im not crazy about springs. The way i see it, go big or go home. If you want it to be level, then get coilovers, but thats just my opinion.

Drop looks nice! Are you on the stock shocks? You'll probably want to upgrade them, they wear down a lot faster w/ aftermarket springs. Hows the ride right now?

Everything else suspension wise is still stock. I am getting some scrubing still. I tried rolling my back fenders some but something is still rubbing so I need to get back in there and see what it is. I love the look. Also, I haven't had anyone in my backseat yet so we'll see how that goes. Pics fsttyms1?
