The integra now sits about 1.75" lower than it did last night.

Although, the entire process was a PITA!

The front literally took 40 minutes for both sides. Then.... we come to the rear. We go to pull the bolt out of the rear lower control arm strut mount and the head freaking snaps :eek3:

6 hours last night spent getting the rest of the bolt and the nut off the control arm and strut, then this morning I had a new bushing pressed in and finished up the install...


The car sits at what I think is a perfect height especially considering the roads the way they are around here. Body roll is significantly reduced and although the new Rota Circuit 8's and tires aren't here yet... the stock wheels have a tight 2 finger gap from the fenders.

Just thought I'd share, cause after the trouble we had with the install, it payed off lovely.
