Why did you replace the "A" on your wheels with an "H"? Other than that it looks good.

Ground controls are made by Eibach..................


Your ride looks great! Those tires are begging for some dressing though! Other than that looks great!

NICE I HAVE GROUND CONTROL ON MY CAR ALSO. I LOVE EM. I WOULD RATHER HAVE GROUND CONTROL THEN H&R OR COMPTECH SPRIGNS BECAUSE GROUND CONTROL IS ADJUSTABLE.

dont you have to get your car aligned everytime you change the height of your car? your tires get eatened up if you dont get it aligned or something.....even with a camber kit. my friend, who also had gc's, just keep it at 1 height and get it aligned at that certain height. if im wrong, let me know..

with the GC you have to replace your shocks.. i hear it shortens the life span on the stock shocks really quickly. and if you were to get Koni yellows with GC you might as well pay a lil to have teins...

i was debating on whether or not to get the GC but after the shock issue im leaning more towards H&R sports now.

i guess it depends on the car, this is a response from a PM i sent NSX4DR:

Re: ground controls
I had it down about 2.5-2.75" drop. I had stock shocks and no problems for 2yrs......

i guess it may vary but im doing fine for now. I hear a little squeaking from the shocks but everyone says it will go away when the springs settle, plus H&Rs arent adjustable and you prolly will get sick of the height ur at

and buying camber kits = more $$
