True but doesn't mean that the engine bays are the say. I'm talking about the picture with two cars in it.

Nothing major, a COBB RSB. The wheels will be for sale in the spring as soon as I decide on what to replace them with. I may get a CBE around Xmas if I find a local buyer for my OEM CBE.

damn i saw your car in a thread yesterday and was going to ask "what springs do you have the drop looks clean and perfect" but 2 posts up it looks like they are fuckin coilovers correct??? Dammit seems like any good looking drop pics are a result of those expensive coilovers :(

oh yeah and btw those wheels are definately sick!

Yep BC coils. I looked around at the spring options because I was also scared off a bit by the cost. I wanted a slightly raked look and none of the springs available at the time dropped the front more than the rear.

Thanks! All the rolling shots were taken by Corey (BoostThat3) on the drive home to FL from EECMM. I definitely had a good time and I hope I can make it to the next one. I just wish it wasn't so damn far away. :D

the drop you have looks gorgeous, almost everytime i see a perfect drop its because they have coils and can adjust it to how they want it. looks great! I hear the tein s-tech gives a raked look, tho not a slight raked look, its more aggressive, but at least you got the good ride quality because you got coils, but price even at $800+ is still a lot to cough up sometimes, so i got spring sinstead and am installing them myself sunday. looks awesome tho dude, all my friends told me I should have gotten white

I want BC's soooo bad. lol, We are going to try to make it to EECMM this summer, hopefully I'll be dropped by then or have anything beyond cosmetics done to the car...

I'm sticking with mainly cosmetic mods on this car. I got caught up in power lust with my last car and it cost me a lot of money when it was time to sell it. That and all the cars popping motors with boltons, a measly 300whp is not worth building a motor. I want either the HKS cbe or the DGM lip and spoiler extension for Xmas.

Not too much harsher than stock actually. It is noticably firmer in the turns and over large bumps but for day to day stuff they are hardly noticable.

I bought them from a dealer. I won't say exactly how much I paid since I'm not sure they are still offered at that price point. I will say that I did not pay retail for them. They may be for sale VERY soon if my plans play out.

You've got PM. Any feedback on these wheels? Likes/dislikes?

PM replied. They're only 7.5" wide, which might be a problem for some, makes no difference for me. The offset is a little disappointing at 52et but some spacers can take care of that.

You're right. I totally should have bought some TSW's instead.
