I have Put spring and shock combo on a 240sx and Integra that I have owned. But I think I am ready for coil over height adjustible suspension Like the one from JIC TIEN CUSCO. What would you guys recommend for an STI? I hate the wheel well gap on the stock suspension. Not to mention the performance gains I would get.

Also I am not familar with how the hieght adjustment works. How do you keep all four corners at the same height? Because its very hard to impossible to fine a completely level surface to park the car and check to see if you are equal at all for corners. This is something that conserns me. Is it something I should worry about?

Any information would be helpful

Yes,
I am looking to lower primary for performance not aesthetic reasons. I know that I will sacrifice some comfort for the gains but who cares! By all means I am not looking for an excessive drop. Maybe a . 5 or inch. Well, I like the look of a two finger gap between the fender and tires. But if you say that's to low for a subaru then I guess it would have to play with the coilovers until I get the best height and performance.
But keep in mind that I am trying to improve performance while getting that lowered sporty look. I will not sacrifice one bit Performance for the look!

Also what about my question with the coilovers?

Also I am not familiar with how the height adjustment works. How do you keep all four corners at the same height? Because its very hard to impossible to find a completely level surface to park the car and check to see if you are equal at all for corners. This is something that concerns me. Is it something I should worry about?

thanx!

Yeah I am going to leave it alone until actual tests are done. They will have to prove to me that it will enhance performance. For example:Show me another STI with the suspension and let me go for a drive in it!
