Default Looking for adjustable coil cover...

my current car is dropped very low.. I like the way it is for the summer, but for winter, it's not going to be fun...with the snow and stuff.

does anyone know any coil cover that can be adjustable by pressing a button? how much is that?

uhhh i think you are better off buying a second car for the snow. but if you really want look into air ride suspensions.

The R does very well in the snow... you just need snow tires and a little ground clearance

Probably because I lived in Seattle for 24 years. Snowboarding 150+ days a year. I think I've seen my fair share of snow. Seen some gnarly wrecks. Seen some gnarly deaths.

A cool Factoid: Washington State, specificly speaking, Snoqualmie Pass receives the highest anual snow fall in the Northern Hemisphere (circ. Discovery Channel) also Washington State has the wettest snow in the world.

When we have huge storms that drift in from the North West coming from Alaska they pick up tons of moisture while traveling over the Northern Pacific, then when that front collides with Easterly winds...holy ****. Don't plan on driving anywhere.

Example: My Junior year in High School...1994 we got seven feet in 12 hours. This happens pretty much every winter about four to five times a winter.

Your absolutely right. I will never drive in the snow with my Type R, but I had plenty of time with two door and four door GSR's respectively. Owned three of these since high school. They rally up the pass! Compact snow and ice on a nice five lane interstate...60mph, 70mph, 80+....no problems (of coarse when no one is around). IMO a very well balanced, very stable platform.
