Just got car back from new suspension install.
I took my car to a local shop, Chaos Performance Tuning, to get the struts/shocks put on since I didn't really want to mess around with them myself. The guy quoted me at $140 for the job and stuck with it afterwards. He was surprised he had to take out the backseats. He also didn't mess up the ABS sensor.
There is a huge difference from before, its practically a whole different car. I love it too. I can already barely notice the lower ride height while driving, and I can see it lower when its parked. I've taken a couple turns sorta fast and haven't felt bodyroll yet. I'll try this local auto-cross style "track" after I get an alignment.
If anyone is thinking of what to do next to their car and haven't done struts/springs, THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED TO DO. Get this sh*t as fast as you can, its making me so much more in love with my car.
Right now it looks like a freakin rocket ship to me... thats how much I love it. And maybe also the 1.7" front and 1.4" rear lowering onto the stock height makes the rear end a lot higher than the front, but it works for me. Everyone that has seen it has praised it.
