Ha... I got to see it in person from before go to after....
tim didn't specify what he is running... but I will... koni yellows on the top perch with tein stech springs... I wish I would've took it for a spin.... and we'd been at my boys shop all day

ps. those wheels are badass in person in pictures and when I first took one out of the box...

Ha... since I was there when it was slammed ... koni yellows... tein stech springs... riding low ftw

ps. Wish I could've taken her for a spin... but it got late... but oh well... probably rides stiff ass hell since we didnt get to adjust the damper settings

^ yea... tom debates over mods alot before he does them... so the outcome are testefull mods that make your jaw drop.... the wheels were a nice touch since he wanted slightly bigger... non aspec wheels... but stock looking....

When we dropped the car down after we did the front setup... I was like holy shit... the thing is slightly lower than my car .... Now I want that setup asap lmfao...

Only bad part about damper adjustments is that you have to remove the strut bar to adjust the firmness...

ps. The spokes on the momo gtr.... real unique, never seen anything like that before

indeed, Momo GTRs. similar style but more aggressive than stock.

yeah, I wanted a subtle but noticeable change. I was surprised too that the drop came out a little lower than stillhere's. now 0.5 - 1 finger gap vs stock 3 fingers? Al, you have do it! You will love the ride even more!

yeah, I thought about leaving the front strut bar off, but it was put back on anyway since it can be removed easily. Hopefully, someone will come out with EDFC/Koni compatible strut bar.

it's sitting pretty low. looks like 1.5-1.75" drop even though the STechs are advertised with 1.2/1.3" drop.

handling is superb. ride isn't perfect yet for me at least. I still need to adjust the front and rear damper.

Dude, the car looks great. I really like those wheels. You need to go to photobucket and get some bigger pics so we can all see the beautiful detail. You being 100 years old should know this.
