This is my weekday drive so I wanted to do something to make the cd5 look bit better with the balance of a good ride.
Enjoy and hope you good luck with your decision! If you want photos let me know.
I'll post them up here!

Oh and I wouldnt cut/reset the standard springs either, BIG NO NO!!

300 is pretty good price. I went around and got quoted 400-800 :S and this is only for king lows! Has there been extra wear and tear on th shocks? im just scared that as soon as i got lows my shocks would give in...so was thinkin instead of spending money on lows and new shocks....get some decent coilovers

What do you think?

I think save ur $ until u can afford a good setup (shock and spring or coilovers).

All depends on how low you want it, how uncomfortable you can put up with , if you want your shocks to wear prematurely....if so by how much (depends on state of shocks and how low u intend to drop it).

It all depends on chance really, there have been people with 3inch drops who havent had a problem with their shocks for 3 yrs....then theres people with the same drop who's stock suspensions has fkd up in 3 days....
