hey next time I go to Busch Garden theme park we should meet up and see the difference between my sportlines and ur s-tech and take some pics...

I have sportlines with HFP... love how it handle at high speed and how it turns... the ride is soft on small bumps, but a bit stiff with big dips and bumps... but I love it and wouldnt want to go back to stock...

Yes thanks to a memeber an eibach I manage to get the instruction... and eibach told me thats the reason why my car felt bumpy and it jump when I hit big bumps and dips... it only took an 1hr with the help of Matt... THANKS MATT...

I wasnt gonna do the back cuz I didnt notice any issues... but eibach told me that when someone sits in the back I was gonna have issues... so since eibach gona send me the sleeves for FREE, next week ima do it once I get them in...

which front camber bolts did you get, seeing as the s-techs lower to 1.5 did you get the bolts with a max of 1.5 lowering range or the 1.5-3.0 lowering range?

Sportlines



Love how it feels. Rides great, responds great if I have to maneuver, and feels amazing while driving agressively.
