I dont have a Tanabe but which one of the 2 are you looking at? If its the GF210 then you're pretty close to the drop of the HFP. If your looking at the DF210 then your close to Progress drop or Prokit/Comptech drop. I haven't seen any pic here lowered on Tanabe's so goodluck.

I wouldn't go with Tanabe...

hmm i want a good drop, but not an insane drop...1.5 all around is were i want to be (or close to that) any recomendations? ive done searches but i cant seem to find the perfect one for the sedan.. one thing i definately want to avoid is the rear end sitting lower than the front end, i hate that...

i think thats my choice!!!! do i need to order S-Techs specifically for the sedan or are the coupe springs just used on both cars?

If you dont want the rear sitting lower than the front then I would go with progress or prokit. Although prokit's drop is not close to 1.5". This is my FA5 sitting on prokit.

Here's another one on prokit. Member soxfan143

This one is 02SilverSiHB FA5 on Progress.
