doubt you'll get that much tuckage with SS.

I'm not even sure if they make it for your application, but I know omnipower and function and form go down prettttty low.

yea they def. make the ss's for the 05's... i looked on omni' site and didnt see them listed for the 05's

im gonna do a google search for the function form's now and see pricing and what not..

also anyone good at PSin' some 16" wheels up on it be my guest i suck @ wheels, i can only really do drop's... i was thinkin' white jdm itr's or something else clean with a nice lip...

let me know your thoughts, i dont plan on sinkin' too much money in this car just a drop, a clean tint job maybe, some new roller's and meats, intake, yellow flim my fogs, and last but still undecided a retro fit... i havent seen on done yett in these housings, but i love hid's...

i just want a tight feel to the car, and i need to be as low as i can its just a must bc i like that and it makes me happy, so im looking for the best full bodied coil i can find for a decent price for my needs... also i know the mac phearson setup is a lot diff then my dc2 and db2 and you cant get it as low etc etc but any input or knowledge is welcome...

also im willing to trade my 1992 db2 gsr for either the coil's of my choice or money for them.. anyone interested!!

omni's dont make coilovers for our car.. or thats what i think.. companies that make coils for our cars:
tein.(used to have on my mitsu..liked the ride for a daily)
function/form(good reviews on h-t but never experienced them)
ksport( dont know but they are cheap)
omni(have no idea they make)
nex(ok)

Why would you want to "slam" a DD? You're just going to ruin the ride, have no suspension travel, and scrape on everything. It's your money, but it seems completely illogical.

here some pics of my bro's... its way more lower now.. this was when he barely got the wheels/suspension.. i think when he was at this height he still had about 6-8 coils left to go down more.
