He, he slowly catching up to the guy. I was going to do coilovers, but am happy with the Eibachs. CO's are nice though, but I think I would be fussing with them all the time. Dude, did you get my snail mail? Thanks again for your help!

The added drop and progressive, stiffer suspension of the Eibachs will give you a lot of bang for the buck... most people are surprised. Also, if you're going for a sportier ride, then swapping out the anti-roll bars but leaving the stock shocks is a good way to get great handling, while still having a nice, compliant suspension for daily driver road duty that doesn't ride any rougher than stock. Coilovers are overkill for most street cars, imo, and jsut rattle yourself to death. The anit-roll bars and eibachs are easily under a grand, and will do more than just a set of coilovers. It's the flat cornering stability of the stab bars that is such an asset, along with being able to dial out some understeer. That's where the real handling benefit lies.

Been busy. Car hasn't even been washed yet, 1750 miles, sent wheels back to IForged last week, having new 3 piece wheels made. I haven't been able to get the spoiler on yet, it's still at the paint shop, just been to busy to get over there before they close. Car is still awesome!

Still busy. Wheels are supposed to be done this week. I ordered Falken's and they arrived today. I'm hoping I won't have any problems with 285's in the rear. Most people don't. I'll have the tires and wheels mounted on the wheels when they arrive. A shop scratched all 4 of my stock wheels when they were installing the Blizzaks. So hopefully I'll be able to roll on these for a while when the stock wheels are repaired. Hopefully it doesn't snow when I have the summers on. It's gonna be badass.
