Well I Ordered the Tein S-tech springs, and installed myself(well me and a fellow scikotic) took us about 5 hours start to finish and iam really ashamed about the drop i thought it was gunna be a little lower than what its at, i can fit at least 2.5 fingers in the wheel well. I guess I just gotta let them settle down a bit more.


Pics soon.

Don't worry about it. I'm riding H-techs and I have had them on my car for about 2-3 months now, and I fit 2 fingers for all wheels. Just give it time and I know you'll be in love with it! Show some pics once they settle! And after they settle, get your tires aligned.

Give it time. S-Techs are slammed. You cut all of the bumpstops, yes? The last set of S-Techs I installed were 1 finger in the front immediately after install...

If you didn't cut them, you're gonna be bottoming out on them on every bump and dip in the road. It's going to feel like someone is hitting the bottom of your seat with a baseball bat.

Car is being put on hold until further notice. Work will continue pending on if i get the new toy i want or not. I will keep you all posted.

UPDATE ON THE TUNE. It went ok but a few little issues that are causing my performance to be less than expected have shown themselves. Now I have to resolve them when I get the chance and it will be back to PTuning for the finishing touches.
