Latest mod - Nex Type SR Coilovers














Suspension: NEX Type SR Coilovers. (Installed by Mr. Heeltoe aka Marcus).
Drop: Approx 1.5 Finger Gap.
Verdict: Stiffer than Tein basics, not as stiff as K-sports. My car is too low to go through a car wash now.

Next up: Drilled/Slotted Rotors.

Thanks Tam. I wish I could make the meet on April 29th, but I've got 2nd year Law school finals coming up on May 1st and I'll most likely need that weekend to cram.

But After May 9th (my last final), I'll be free from school. I'll help you out with your LED conversion and with whatever else you need.

BTW Tam, I spotted an ABP 02-03 TL in HB (in the Blockbuster's Plaza on Atlanta and Magnolia). It was dropped, debaged and had 5zigen 5ZR rims. Any idea who it is?

Stock


Tanabe NF210 + Tokicko Blues (approx 2 finger gap - slightly higher than that though)


Nex SR Coils at 1.5 Finger gap.


Alright, by popular request, I will be going lower. Gonna go to a 1 finger gap. Goddamn NEX coilovers are annoying to adjust though... need to take off the wheels.

those are the ones i have too nice to see somebody else with them. The ride is pretty stiff but I like it that way. Do they feel like they handle better than your Tanabe NF210 + Tokicko Blues?
