I got the S tech ones and threw em on with the tokico blues. Love 'em, even if they aren't coilovers. The dress up ones don't have as aggressive of drop as the S techs, more for show. The S techs drop you more in the front, which i like too. I know the ride is stiffer than coilovers, but I really don't mind it as long as my tires are at 32 psi.

Good luck!

Good info ToyoSolv6, I assume the coilovers are for a lower drop and aggressive performance. I have been thinking of an eventual upgrade to the tein coilovers, but a stiffer ride is something to consider...:)

well the stiffer ride actually always matter on how you have the dampening set if you have it set to a soft setting you wont feel everything on the road as much if you have it set to a stiff setting then you will feel every little crack and your car will jump like a basketball on the street.
