Other than that, I know Tokico makes a full replacement for the front but I haven't had any experience with that brand.
I had H&R Race which lowers the car 2.5"F and 2.25"R with KYB AGX's

That could be why....to be honest, 2.5" drop is somewhat extreme in any circumstance...especialy for KYB's. A drop that low is more suited for Koni Sport Adjustables since they are valved more aggresively.

Id go w/ KYB's and drop it no more than 1.5"-1.75". That's just my opinion...

My friend has Nuespeed Race springs which lower the car 2.25"F and 2"R with KYB's and I love the ride. If I want it around that height I will prolly just get the Nuespeeds and pair them with the Tokico's.

i have zero complaints about my omnipowers. tein is a quality product, but overrated unless we're talking about their super high end stuff.

omni != APC and the like IMO. quality product, good prices. :thumbup: from me.
