I saw pics that someone recently posted and loved the drop! But doesnt that kind of drop screw with the suspenion geometry? I havent done my full suspension research yet.
as i have told u kir it will, lowering the car to far throws of the geometry of the suspensions. if you really want to lower your car alot get coilovers and ball joint extenders and u will be happy

I agree. KiR, I went with the Tanabe springs in the summer and while I have been very impressed with these (they make the STi a much more predictable road car and the "bobble head" effect was eliminated) I wish I had just saved a little bit longer and purchased coilovers, which would have given me infinitely more flexibility, control and feel. Go coilovers!
