Talking Tanabe NF210

Anybody got em installed? A supposed 1.5 F/R drop with the comfort of OEM springs. I currently shopping for springs and im leaning towards the TEIN H. Techs, but any input will be much appreciated!

*im not looking for an aggressive drop, just enough to rid of most of the fender gap!*

i think that H&R sports springs are the most popular ones round here. i read once about Tein h.techs not having even drop but dont kno if that really is true...

I have them installed.

They lower the car very slightly, and they ride pretty much stock. They might ride better than stock if your current suspension needs to be replaced. Also no camber kit is needed with the tanabes.

Here are a few pics to help you out.

Honestly, the Tanabe springs give your car an OEM look when upgrading your wheels to a "+ size." Meaning, if you look at my pictures above, the drop is so subtle, it looks almost as if it came from the dealership that way.

But compare the first stock pic, with the tanabe + OEM TL-S wheels, and you can see a huge difference in the wheel gap.

It did eliminate the tail delay substantially. As for braking dive, I haven't braked very hard in it. But they are slightly stiffer than stock springs, so I imagine the dive would be reduced slightly.
