A big thanks to Phat Gt for the supply of the TEINs S-Techs. Got them fitted today and LOVE the new height. Not only that, but I can believe how much better it handles. It corners sooo much better now and the ride is not harsh at all. I will post up some pics as soon as I take them, but I had to post up how pleased I am

James

ps. my wife hasnt noticed yet (but I got home when it was dark)

I wonder when/if she will notice?

Hey mate..

she will notice.. I have a set of springs waiting to go in now.. putting it off until I have everything else ready..

How long till you get the rattles

Out of interest, how much did it drop?

hmm.. might have to leave early tomorrow morning

I guess we will see, I would be surprised though as the ride doesnt feel any harder than before? still.... its only early days

suff wrote:Out of interest, how much did it drop?

dropped 30mm front and 25mm rear (measured before and after)

Great to hear James! Everyone I know who's had the S.Tech's installed were happy with how the car handles afterwards, and very surprised at how comfortable the ride quality still is.

To the casual observer, the car will look slightly lower but it won't be to the point of catching anyone's attention. The car looks more aggressive but it's subtle enough to receive complaints of change. It's only when she tries to get in and out of the vehicle that she'll notice because it's more difficult.

Im looking at getting sussy for me also..

pics pics pics?? lol

good work James, post up the pics when you get a chance. Now whats next sway bars & end links?

Good work James!

Great aint they!

I was always tossing up whether to go the full coilover upgrade or just the tein springs. If i didnt have the bilsteins in mine then i would have gone the coilovers. The ride height is perfect and held up well during track day last week. No scrapping issues with a front sti lip and rear diffuser.

I have not had any rattles even after one yr.

The height looks ok now, wait till it settles. It will look and perform even better.

ok here are the pics

Cheers

James your wife is going to notice that drop!! Looks awesome mate!!!!!

James,

Good to hear ur happy about them, looks good in the right height department, no need for my 2sec's in to droping that shit! LOL but it could still go a little lower hha jokes..

Looks nice mate, u have to be happy

need to get the front windows tinted

apart from that, Im just getting a corazon grille fixed and painted (thanks to Jim for the grille).

Im very tempted by a tune (after a downpipe) but renovations on the house and an imminent addition to the family are most probably going to be eat away any potential mod-dough

yep window tint is a good mod and I really like the look of the corazon grill too! Should look a treat when done. I weakened to the Phat man and ordered his dump pipe recently and expect it here next week.

James!

It looks sweet.

Yours actually sits well. It seems like the front are sat well too.

Thanks Phil.

Mine isnt a spec B, so maybe the reason it sit quite level is because Im not on Billys. Also, when I bought the Spec B rims I put 40 profiles on them (rather than 45's which come standard) dont know how much difference it all makes, but yeah Im really happy with the final look and feel (even if Ive had to forgoe my parking spot underground at work because of the ramp )
