What do you guys think of the Tanabe Precedeo Down springs for the S14? I've seen a few on sale for cheap, but haven't really seen any reviews on them. My car is begging to be lowered, but not so much that I lose a chunk of metal from my car each time I hit a speed bump. I'm considering the ProKit w/Tokico's, but might get the Precedeo Downs based on how you guys review it.

Well, time to go learn all 206 bones in the body! Test this Thursday... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cry.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':cry:'>

well yu can get the agx's that are adjustable norw for the s14 for a little more then the tokicos which are just factory replacements from what i hear.But the agx's are great anfd better for lowering springs.

Well I have them, ground clearance is not a problem at all really. Just dont hit speed bumps rallly style and you should be fine. &nbsp;Over all I say not bad on these springs. Just get some shocks that are decent.

This is what she looks like with the springs.

M. Bison, thanks for the tip! &nbsp;I might look into the AGXs. &nbsp;Never knew the Tokicos were only factory replacements!

I'm going to go for the AGX's also...when I have the money &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>

But you can not adjust the negative camber on the rear wheels until you get Cusco adjustable rear arms and might want to get Eibach camber bolts, which you can find at Tire Rack for $25 n/i shipping.

GT specR covered it pretty well.

Get some AGXs and eibach camber bolts up front and some rear arms from cusco. Don't need to do it right away or anything but in the long run you will be better off with them.

Any ideas on how much the Cusco rear arms will cost and the AGX shocks? &nbsp;I just read a post by someone asking about it. &nbsp;It sounds like it's not readily available yet, or it's just hard to get.

the rear arms are like $350 i think, check out Enjuku Racing (http://www.enjukuracing.com/) they have em.

As for the AGX's i dunno. I think There was a set for sale in the for sale section last week.

Ok i hate when peps do this M.Bison is from street fighter BEISSEN is german &nbsp;or an in-u-window for Bite Me But in true german it only means bite.But I have as slang for bire me.Please dont confuss my sn witha video game it is very annoying.But anyway the tokicos are basicly factory replacementw from what i hear our shocks were make by tokico strange hungh.The agxs were like on sale for awhile for like 499.00 for all four and are adjustable.
&nbsp;The shock body on the tokico are the same height as our factory when replaceing shocks for lowing you want a shorter shock body.
