king springs low - 30mm

king springs superlow - 40-50mm

So u mean with the king spring lows it is 30mm lower than the standard height (ie with standard springs) ?

2nd hand OEM? you can pick that up for about $300 for shocks and springs, 2nd hand for a dc2r.

brand new, forget it, might as well buy coil overs for the price of brand new.

Don't put Kings on a Type R, they are the cheapest roughest ride springs. Maybe Lovells if you're after something cheap but you won't get cheap and good if you want new (which I would).

i can tell u from experience

i put superlows in the bacl and lows in the front to have a flat look

looks nice, but honestly, it does affect the handling a little.... makes it sloppy

if u were to lower it u might aswell just get some good coilover, so it wont ruin the handing and comfortability of the car. or just get something good like waht danny has said. or u could get some tien springs. herd they wer alrite

dude get the tien...
i once had kings springs on my pulsar... and it was as stiff as a mofo ...now i have some tien coil overs and trust me its so worth spending the extra money..
so spend the extra and do things right the first time... that way u wont be spending more later on.
