Before: Swift springs, KYB GR-2 struts, STI tophats
After: RS strut bodies, Koni Inserts, Ground Control coil Inserts (350/300)
Still need to put in camber bolts (as its 2.8 in the rear and I want it at 2.0), roll the rear fenders, and need to put 2 stage helper springs to give it a bit better ride.

Yep, had to do a bit of grinding once we got them in, as the bit of the spring cup I left, still touched the tire, but a quick application of 4" cutoff wheel solved that.

To all those that have a PDX series alpine amplifiers. I just found out that these are only stable on 4 & 8ohm settings. Just figured out why my type-x was cutting out even though it's a perfect paired sub amp set.

That is the plan, the back is as high as it can go right now, so once I get the helper springs I can back down the adjusters some...but I really like it where it is, not SLAMMED, but still low and rides well.

Wax or die. What did you use? I am an avid enthusiast of cleaning products and trying them out. If i cant find a new i like my car doesnt get washed. Hence the name lol. So far my fav is fast wax but curious as to what others use.
