/// 2011: Slammed Thread ///
Old member checking in looking for some advice. I used to own a del sol, and it was "slammed" for the time. I will be buying another one in the near future and I am researching suspension options and looking to go lower. I had function and forms (10k/6k) on the previous car and the ride was pretty ****ing stiff to say the least.
From what I've read, ground control coilovers with extended top hats are the way to go, but can I can some advice on shocks/spring rates? I can get gc's with one set of extended top hats for ~ $400 but would rather not pay $600 for a set of yellows. Is it even worth my time to get a set of Gr2's or the like? Also what spring rates should I look at for a "comfortable" ride?
Here's a throwback pic of my old sol for good measure.

I think I remember you had a midori EK right?
Well its just my opinion but the yellow's are pretty important. They last being low and have a warranty. (Maybe KYB's do too but I dunno).
I feel like top hats make a huge difference but GC brand are a waste of money. I would just try to find someone that would make some and make them a lot taller than GC makes them.

true statement, that thing is beautiful, the offset on the rear is -100 and just for the record, the work on the exterior, radiused fenders and everything prolly cost more than lots of people cars, that thing has thousands of dollars just to sit like that
