Still need to figure out the other three corners of the car.
Why go lower...looks fine at that height. Besides...it will ride much nicer at that level than if you "slam" it.

The front drivers side is good.

The picture is deceiving though. All three of the other corners have wheel gap.

I have a love/hate relationship with this car.

Oh...yeah...that tire gap is gonna come up a bit once the other sides are evened out. Why don't you just drop all the adjustable collars down to the tops of the shock perches and see where it sits? Then you can go up from there.

I still need to get K-Pro and have my bay painted before I can move forward, but I need to do something or it'll just continue to sit in my garage collecting dust...

I'll start a thread for it for sure.

I'm not a big Mugen/Spoon fan boy. I like a lot of the older style rims, just not from those companies (EXCEPT the Mugen MR5...mmmmm).

You're wasting your money either way.
The apexi fc is junk.

And don't be a moron and go blow your money on assesories when your car needs a tune

Spend your money on a hondata or neptune ecu

Power fc is junk? That's news to me. Aren't you the same guy buying wheels instead of tuning your car n/a? Just saying...
