rofl i aint doing no more group buys

lol first group buy id actually be in on and no go lol? would you be in terrry. you want more low justin and justin? Jom, lowered but soft would you be in? FrankyX? atlantis? Dennis? Jake you got any cars you want lowered? who else?

Any lower on my car now and i'll have camber issues i recon. I can't afford coilover, had it been from the start i would have gone 19s and coils.

Be aware of camber chris, u need coils if u wanted go lower..and that means $$$.

yeah i know but the good coilovers can get camber pillow tops also (i dont think an inch all round is gonna affect the tires tho). not droping on springs only. to hard a ride.

Don't know about Teins but my Tanabe DF210 is as soft as oem springs (depending on what u mean by soft). I know coils give u the option for camber adjustment, hence the added luxury to go lower. That said if you go too low there's the added fear of rubbing and bottoming outs.

My take, somewhere between Teins and Tananbe would be a perfect drop...H&R?

I think it's too late for me to go coils. That money would go to a nice cat-back...or kit.

[LEX51S]

the Silvers NEOMAX reviews that i was looking at getting. the guys said they can be as soft as you like and there was no bottoming out and was way softer then stock. and camber adjust simple.

Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity

To seize everything you ever wanted-One moment

Would you capture it or just let it slip?

[LEX51S]

Werd! but use the Force Luke...you can do it...

Or just get springs and save money.

[ldc]

[ilv1004s]

k2sty1, exhaust shops like Liverpool Exhaust are hectic. Got my TX3 catback & 2.5" there.

yea true but "stuff" as he also said can be done at home too depending on the "stuff"

[k2sty1]

ahhh

cool thanks

gonna call up some places later this week

any estimates on the price?

under 200$??

if its too much, i'd rather fork out the extra for a HKS Hi Power

[ilv1004s]

well u do know

the HKS and mid pipes are different

HKS is an axle back

and wat your trying to achieve is in the mid pipe which is before the axle back

[k2sty1]

ohhhh

well, in that case

if its cheap to delete my resonator, i wont get a HKS Hi Power axle back, and just delete my mufflers aswell??

and a Fujita intake

oh and i saw this

i think its a different kit to wat u guys were talking bout

A resonator + muffler delete is most likely gonna be cheaper than getting an axle-back. I've heard clips of the resonator delete and it sounds pretty good IMO. Not sure how a muffler delete is gonna sound though - prolly gonna be crazy loud tho! Doesn't hurt to try - and you can always weld them back on if you don't like it

Don't make the same mistake I did - get the intake before you change up your exhaust! You'll appreciate it much more. ;)

The bodykit kinda looks like a cross between the JP Vizage and the INGS kit - the back is ugly IMO.

[ilv1004s]

and that kit only fits a facelift model aka 09 model onwards
