New pic, moar low
Installed my HT-Spec Type-1's this weekend, and i'm incredibly happy with the drop so far! I probably will go lower quickly, we will see. Let me know what you think!

yeah I WILL go lower, but not until im on aftermarket rims. Im having a hellofa time trying to find something both in my price range and in my style, but I will eventually.

So far they meet my needs well. They are comfortable, and adequately sprung and dampened about 95% of the time, which is about as much as you can ask for something that isnt adjustable.

Thanks for the compliments guys, I will get more pics once she is cleaned up. Its supposed to snow tomorrow then rain all week so who the hell knows when I can do that! I hate this state.

Check the sig! JnC modded TLS headlights, did ZKWr lenses, blacked out the turn signal area, and cf'd the corners

The fronts are on 1" of threads, the rear on 1 5/8" of threads. The minimum you can do is 3/4" of threads. TBH if you dont want to go low, these arent for you, go with Megans or just springs/shocks.

Lucky you! Make sure you read DeathMetal's install thread.


To everyone else, thanks for the compliments!

One of the wonderful things about CBP, it really doesnt show dirt!! That shot Ive got about 2 weeks of grime on it, and it doesnt show!

We woke up to snow today, seriously Illinois sucks lol. If its nice this weekend Ill grab my buddies DSLR and take some real shots

He does really good work and you cant beat a guy that will work on his own set and send them to you so you dont have any car downtime!

In the event I cant decide or cant afford wheels this year then Ill prob do spacers, unfortunately cant find any shops around me that will charge less than $200 for fender rolling, which I think is rediculous
