I put up a pic with the springs and struts. The pic isn't that good, my NEW batteries died so I need to take more tomorrow.

looks good, but you need a driver's side sideskirt.

Yes, she is very spoken for by Mr. "I'm gonna kick your butt" Spencer.

Mark, you should have "photochopped" it on the ground and tucking rim & tire!! :twisted:
(kissing asphalt is my style!)

i made this modification as well this past saturday. getting the rears out and new ones in took the most time. i like it though.

i see a lot of people are putting the ol' H+R's into their legs, but which ones? i have a minor fear of lowering my car too much so i'm just curious.

i just hear having the ass end sit lower than the front. i really don't like that...

Rob- It's the sport springs.

David- I notice today that the rear doesn't sit lower it just seems that way. The rear wheel wells sit lower.

Mine look like they sag as well...they don't, it's the fender.

yeah when i lower it the only thing that might give me trouble is the rear wheel well w/ my 18's. i think it'll be ok because overall they're aren't much if any larger than my 16's and the fatty fat fatson tires on them.

Yea, it looks like my front sits higher than my rear with the WRX struts and springs in, but if you look at the side of the car, you can see it sits evenly with the ground.
