Looks good man, but you think you can change the pics to 640x480? BTW, I was wondering what happens if you adjust your height, would you have to get an alignment everytime?

Gawd!!! Why is everyone telling me to resize my pics? You all act like it's big or something . As far as alignments, you can adjust it about an inch at most without seriously throwing off your alignment, but after that...ur FAWQED...haha just like me

Hhahaha...thanks for the compliments...the megapixel is 3.3 Sony DCS-P71 model. Teins were on a groupbuy at $850...but they're backordered now until the end of this year. What rim and tires are you getting? I want to get the racinghart m5 18inch one piece...but with the headers and teins...i'm somewhat broke now!

Hahah...thank you for the compliments! The ride quality is really good...I got it set on max stiffness on the shocks so it's a little bumpy, but allows me to fully utilize my headers. Damn 3inchs and lower is damn low bro! Post some pics! I wanna see that! Do you have any scraping problems or hitting the fender when you turn. I didn't want to go too low because I can't stand to mob slow for too long...I have to hit the twisties and turns like no tomorrow .

Teins is a Japanese company who specializes in true coilover systems and that is springs and shocks in a combo as opposed to just buying springs and then shocks. Go to www.tein.com for more info.
