I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

How much?

Post by tomoyasu » January 24, 2006

I was just wondering how many inches you guys have lowered your cars. I just ordered some springs that are supposed to drop it 1.5 to 2 in. and i have no idea if thats gonna be enough or not.

im going for both, looks because i want it to look more attractive when i sell it, handling because i hate body roll and i want to reduce it as much as possible without spending too much. Also i cancled that order and orderd different ones with a 2.5 in drop

dont go cheap on springs, i speak from experience, you will HATE your car. also, please tell me your not gonna put these on stock struts?

as far as a lip goes.... this is all i could find, its for a crx, im not sure how differant the fitment would be for a hatch, coupe, or sedan EF (not sure what you have)
