Alright i just got my coilovers and am about to install them with a cpl friends this week "hopefully" anyway how much do you think i should drop it.

I was thinking 2.5 in front and 2.2 in back i think thats what most people do but im not sure. BTW for the mean time im on stock struts and shocks (yah i know that sucks but its just temporary) so if that matters what do you guys think.

God the wheel gap right now is so ugly they made those things like mini monster trucks

 

Your stock struts will not last the abuse of coil overs. Been there ,Blown struts.

 

Save up to do it the right way. You could find a new set of Tokico Blues or KYB GR2s for around 250 if you look around, if not lower. And if you are planning to lower and use those non adjustable shocks, buy or make some modified shock mounts:

Those will add some life to the shocks.

And to help you clear up any confusion, there's three parts to a "strut" (my own interpretation anyways)

strut = spring + shock + shock mount

 

Now if you dont plan on replacing the shocks right away i'd say slam it all the way. Cause they are gonna be shot either way. You will prolly get a few dents in the oil pan by the time you want to replace the motor and shocks so they wiil all be ready to go.

 

yea your shocks are one thing to think about.... also are you comfortable driving with yer car slammed bcuz if you're not then there's gonna be lots of scraping
