well I'm kinda pissed as I just installed my S-Tune kit and it's sitting .5" higher in the front. Was gonna put RS*R on them but I am getting impatient, especially now!

OK Japan Parts responded. $391 for the TI 2000 Down Springs and $140 or shipping. (It's like $60 cheaper for the normal ones) I'm gonna do it!

tein's are okay too but check their spring rates. it seems like their engineers just
puts together some assortment of springs as a kit and sells it for a car.

not sure if i got a bad batch but tanabe does not qualify in my
future to-buy department.
wow... i wanted to get the tanabe gf210 springs... this makes me rethink some things..

tein sux too. swift, neuspeed, h&r are some of the highest quality springs. Eibach has good quality but they suck as a spring.

From a lowering perspective...that looks almost exactly like stock..lol. If you are just looking for a high quality linear spring....than you can't go wrong. I wish the front end was a tad lower though...looks high to me with respect to the rear.

This is most likely what I would get though just based on the fact that it is a linear spring.

Does anyone know if the H&R's are progressive or linear?
