Huge improvement, stance is much better, and the black FMIC fit’s soo nicely in there. Stiffer springs as well? What rate? P.s. Why is the FMIC black in 1st pic but silver in 2nd? :ninja ---

> [@Vovchandr](#): > > P.s. Why is the FMIC black in 1st pic but silver in 2nd? :ninja I’d guess that the second pic is an older pic before he painted the fmic. I see snow in the background, has to be at least a month old. ---

yah…the snow pic is older. Its the same spot where I took the pic both times… they are much stiffer. Car handles a ton better and I actually like how it rides even tho its stiffer…before with the stock springs it would bounce kinda when I hit a bump and stuff…and when i went WOT, the nose would lift up as high as the suspension would let it… havent really cracked the throttle yet with the new springs besides a quick 1st gear blast…but it spun the tires on bare pavement like it was wet out :headbang Kinda worried that the stiffer, lowering springs took away alot of my traction. ---

If the fronts dont fail you will still want to replace them. Your front end will do the floaty dance because the shocks wont slow the spring action enough. It looks good tho, what springs are they… Eibach’s? Im also a little concerned that you dont have sub frame connectors. I would invest in some soon. boxed are the best and I recommend weld in over bolt in installation. ---

Looks much better but certainly doesn’t look like 2" of drop…prob still have to settle. PS, might want some t-bolt clamps on the IC couplers (they look like normal hose clamps). This is just my .02 from personal experience. Nick ---

with the power you are producing you are probably twisting your chassis with torque, That little unexplainable dent in your quarter panel is sometimes a product of unibody flex and SFCs will fix that as well as stop a lot of squeaks and rattles in the car. A stiffer chassis is a better performing chassis so why not… just a suggestion ---
