I just finished installing the suspension setup (KYB AGX w/ HKS Supersports) and I absoulutely love it! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/inlove.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':love:'> <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

It is great but what I noticed was that the limits were higher from initial fast corner runs but the break away was not as progressive. Maybe better tires will make the difference. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/dozingoff.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':zzz:'> It was like I was at the limit then I was over the limit but damn was that limit pretty high <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'> <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

After VIR in February I will give a full review <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

The install was a breeze <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> &nbsp; Just WD40'd the hell out of the bolts and nuts and used a breaker bar and the whole install took like 2hrs. &nbsp; That was doing it all by myself so w/ two people it would have been alot quicker.

I got everything from DriftFreaq from the For Sale section here for $450 <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'> &nbsp;
I absolutely love the look of the car now! &nbsp;I think it looks like it should have from the factory.

The drop in the front was pretty substantial because of my optional rally package <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'> &nbsp; I have no idea why my stock suspension was so damn high in the front. &nbsp; &nbsp;I think it was lowered about 1 3/4" but the rear was already sagging so it pretty much stayed the same.

Sounds a lot like my car. Im really opting for a shock/spring set up for the time being, but Im already in debt... and still cant stop spending what little money I have on mods.
