Default installed 4 cyl springs/struts PICS and ???







Sorry that the pics are so big...so should the car sit this low in the front???
all i did was get new 4cyl spring up front, strange struts and remove front swaybar
also, there is tire rub against the fender when i turn the car...would skinnies up front solve that prob. because i plan on getting them soon

no sway bar would cause the low ness of your car. You could run skinnys and fix the rub a little bit but it will be an animal on the streets to control with no sway bar.

Looks really low. Did you put your spring insulators in?

Sway bar has no effect on ride height!! Skinnies would most likely NOT rub. That baby is low though. I was thinkin about doin that, but it might be too low for my car and cause the intercooler to scrape the ground. That would not be good

You know you can resize them on photobucket right?

ok 1st off, sway bar or no sway bar... has nothing to do w. his height


and itll be a bitch on the road? ****... your far from right w. that one... i have the exact set up that the op is doing... 4 banger springs, strange struts, and no sway bar... with skinnies, and i have no problems at all on the street... sure i dont take turns at 100mph.... but for Daily Driving, its had very little effect... yes its oticable, but nothing that holds me back, or effects my saftey, etc...

you will like how the car launches now, i can promise ya that much... theres a pic of my car launching around here somewhere.. stock everything on that suspension and a tire... it hooks quite well..

i have no tire rub issues at all...

as for that height... looks lower then mine does.. tho i wish mine was lower...
