i wanted to get gc's, but a guy i know might be selling skunk2's. are skunk2's a good brand to go with?

why buy coilovers if you dont want them? if you don't want them put the 300 towards something you do want.

Skunk2 and Omin's are both good brands for coilovers and sleeves.

if you really want to slam that **** go with airbags, or if you lower that **** real far i think you're supposed to get sway bars or some **** like that or your wheels will be like this

//=\\ never know, it might be the new look, but good luck with getting tires to last.

...that's camber....you'll want camber kits or custom control arms if you have double wishbone suspension.

sway bars help with less "sway" or roll in turns

camber, that's the one i meant. i wasn't sure which word to use, but i just remember one of my friends saying that if you lowered your car more than 1.5 then you would need the camber kit because your wheels would bow. ty for the correction sijray21

With Ground Control coilovers, you'll need to buy stuts aswell. Just get OmniPower full coilovers for $700 and call it a day.
