Default lowering comments

I was just letting everyone know that is planning on lowering their car themselves...
If your any of the bolts on your lower control arm arent budgeing give up and find a different way.
I on the other hand didnt quit and i snapped the head off of one of the bolts. This led to a week and a half of drilling that bolt and hacksawing it. I never want to do this again. The after compared to the before made it all worth it... Just thought id share with you all...
I put on H&R sport springs on my stock shocks. Ride height is perfect in my opinion and the ride isnt too bad. I'm very pleased. Ill try to get some pics of my car and post them..

yeah i did the same xcept i paid to have installed in IMO i got raped with the lub. i got the H&Rs for like 155 shipped and then had to turn around and pay 120 to have installed. the bad thing is that here in San Antonio i know of like 2 shops that know what they doing. cuz no one really knows how to work on imports. i learned frmo my bud who everytime he took his car for anything, like breaks , camber, coilovers. they were like uhhhhh, hmmmmmm, lets see here, so u want us to , hmmmm
nice car.

It was supposed to be 1.7 in the front and 1.5 in the back but i think it lowered it pretty close to that. If it isnt that it might be a little biit more but looks good and rides good. no rubbing either

west coooast! just kidding guys. east coast guys have terrible stories about those LCA/shock bolts.

You think you like those H&R sports are good with stock shocks, try em with AGX's or Koni Yellows....
