H&R Cup Kit on 99 Si.. pics, etc
I just joined this board, so I figured I'd post here just to share, even though I've had them installed for a little while..
H&R Cup Kit - for those unaware, Koni Yellows (silver in color) valved to H&R's specs to match their special rate progressive springs. Lowers apprx. 2.0" in the front, 1.75" in the rear, spring rates comparable to H&R Race springs.
Wasn't thinking and took a pic on black carpet, but you get the idea..

Re: H&R Cup Kit on 99 Si.. pics, etc (tominos)
Sorry I took so long for the reply.. I'm on Trial User status (when the hell does this go away??) and I can only post 5 times in 24hrs 
I got it from TireRack for $629 shipped ($616 before shipping).
The shocks are adjustable. They're Koni Yellows (same external adjustment dial, and perch setup) but they're silver in color as I said before. I actually haven't messed around with the damper settings yet, as I really haven't had much time.
The ride is firm, but I wouldn't say it's harsh.. It's definitely streetable.
All in all, IMO it's a nice setup. Gives a nice stance (if you care how 'low' your car looks) and handling is much improved. Marginal height adjustment, and 'infinite' damper adjustability. As I said before, I really haven't messed around with the damper stiffness yet, but I've been told not to set the rear too stiff or it oversteers like hell.. Guess I'll find out

Can you adjust the height (raise or lower the shock collars)? Are you able to raise the car?
