Looks good! Now what did you install?

 

[Mr. WHO]

You can't do something like this and leave us all hanging on what you used.

Same thing when "I did such mods" and you don't have any pictures.

Wow, Armor All really makes the car look lower, hahah. Looks great man, congrats, give us the details!

Sorry posted the other day what I was installing didn't think to report the list. Parts installed were

Eibach Sportlines
J&M caster/camber plates
J&M AdJ UCA
J&M LCA's
J&M Adj Panhard Bar
BMR LCA Relocation Brackets

Sorry no pics during the install I did all the work on base at the hobby shop and was pressed for time. Still lack a front end alignment and the panhard bar is still about 1/4 inch off. But overall was very happy with the results for my first time doing my own work.

looks alot better....now get some new wheels. Does your apt complex have speed bumps? If so good luck!

My father told me I should have left mine higher. I say no way but he tells me atleast you would be able to drive it over bumps....lol

 

[S197/zx14]

I live near the front no speed bumps unless I go further in like to get my mail but I usually walk back to get it.

Wow.. looks great! Kinda makes me wish I had gone with the Sportlines rather than the Eibach Pro kit.

Looks great! Now put some rubber under the back of that thing!

Thanks for posting this up - I just got a first gen GT500 and have been looking at lowering springs. You car looks great, man.

I agree they look great but they are progressive rate springs which in my experience don't work as well as linear rate springs do on the S197 chassis. As ass backwards as it sounds the progressive rate springs feel harder and bottom out more frequently than linear rate ones do.
