Okay so i'm buying my next mod really soon, new coils and caster cambers plate.
I will get Steeda 3 bolts CC's but now I need to know what coils do I order... Sportsline or Pro-Kit ? I'm really divided, cash is not the problem im just scared that the Sportsline drop is too low for our pitiful roads... what do you guys think?

thanks alot!

I have
sport lines
mm cc plates
kyb gr2 shocks/struts
going on my car on friday..ive talked to lots of people about this and the general comment is the pro kit doesnt lower your car enough to make it worth it, why buy cc plates if you are going with the pro kit... ..go sportline or go home

all depends on the drop u want... are you ever gonna run a set of long tubes? Do u need some extra clearence?

I have the pro kit and it lowered my car enough for me about 1.5 inches all around...

And I run Maximum Motorsport CC Plates... with any drop u should have CC plates.... unless you like to get new tires every year..

I have the pro-kit, I think it's fine. And with the "most excellent" road conditions here in Ottawa, I'm glad I don't have anything lower/stiffer. As it is now, I also have to watch those speed-bumps....

Can't adjust the drop, I think it will depend on your exact model (i.e. weight) of car. For my pro-kit, I think it was something like 1.5" in the front, 1.25" in the rear.

how much did you pay for those lowered springs and cc plate? For the pro-kit?

I need to change that too.. so.. I'm better to take some good suspension things..

Looks good but do I have to change my shock\struts with Sportsline ? I changed my shocks all around last summer, not sure about the struts though

I have Lakewood Drag struts & shocks... before that I had stock struts & shocks. You'll be fine.

I hate to say it, and even though the drop is a different feel...
the 2 inches is the best way to do it man.

Go Sportlines
