oh i see... so those folks getting like those mesh 19x10 + 19x11 (28lbs) wheel setups are going to REALLY feel it. :ugh2:

I'll be paying off some bills and should have enough left over for the HKS HI POWER TITANIUM and STILLEN G3

And it won't even cost you all of Corona's tax refund :tup:

hahaha, thanks! i think im going to get a LSD in my dd in the way of getting a new car. will see later on. :tup: the Fit's 'ok' but my younger kid is now finally in the range of safely sitting on booster seats so going to use my G35C once it gets warm as my dd and this fall probably sell both cars and get either a new STI hatch or MS3. not sure which. obviously my Z stays. :p

so corona- are you going to do brakes instead of coilovers? :)

i think coilovers would put the biggest smile on your face in terms of actual driving experience, as well as the drop looking nice.

Side note: I'll be moving to Germany in like 3 weeks so getting stuff before I leave would probably be cheaper than shipping it out.

If you are going to Germany would be a good idea to save for a "huptie", Winters are bad over there, plus they used a lot of salt.

On the other side you maybe can get some coilovers or lowering spring, camber kit, etc.

I'd go coils or lsd.

I think it you bother replacing the brakes, it would be smart to go straight to a high performance set. The akebono's are good, but probably not worth dropping $1400+ over the base brakes.
