    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    Alright majority rules change your suspension before you kill yourself or someone else. Keep it clean :)

    My guess is that you bought coilovers or (god forbid) springs that you cut for the front only, cause you couldn't afford anything for the backend.

    So do yourself a favor and get your ride height fixed, before you kill your car and (again, god forbid) someone else.
    right now im running KYB-GR2 struts and Megan springs but the assend is way to low, so im looking for a higher sitting set for the back. So ur guess is wrong, might try asaking some questions before making predictions. And as far as the ride goes it corners great just like it is.

    and the sunvisor isnt coming off, i smoke i have to have it!

    I had the tein lower spring with kyb gr-2 bro. It looks fine with no gap between the tire and car in the rear suspension but still looking pretty high from a back view.!! I mean the rear bumper still far away From the floor So u can go with them and u will be fine.!! And good luck with the rest.!!

    Fine, dont listen to us. We only know and have seen this happen before. Ask njfudge, DO NOT push your car in corners with your current set-up. You WILL lose control, it's not something that we heard might happen it is something we've SEEN happen within the community. Even if you find a different spring for the back that will satisfy your goal for the drop, I gurantee it still wouldnt be the safest thing because not all springs have the same spring rate.

    after you get teins (for the rear) make sure you get a sway bar for the rear itll help reduce that unwanted roll from haven it sit higher then the front. even a lower tie bar will help some. i wouldnt argue to much about spring rate(even though a big issue) a lot of it is center of gravity and moment roll center that will disturbe your cars handling. you want your front and rear to work together not lagging or opposite.

    to a certain degree it all comes down to how you want the car to handle. some people like under steer some like over steer i do think under steer is your safest option for a FF drive. teins might the do the job it might not. after you get new springs i say learn the cars limit on a course etc before you do reckless driving(not that you should).

    Only sonata f5m42 swapped. N/A build in motion.

    You mean lower sway bar or are your trying to get him to remove/modify his back seat?




    Those are teins for reference of height

    I guess the 3 people that lost their G on my last post due to the same shit you're doing meant nothing to you. Well, that's okay, see your thread on the Graveyard forum soon! :)

    I meant just a bigger bar in diameter to replace the stock anti sway bar/stabilizer.

    As others have said, remove the AEM sticker and sun roof wind deflector. Well you said it wasn't your DD, and a clean look doesn't sound like what your going for. On a side note, could I get a picture of your front end? Looks like you meshed the grille bumper and foglight holes, I was thinking of doing the same.

    Hey greddy! nice sig! lol


    But yeah... your ride height game needs to change a bit. you dont need stickers to be a track car, I'll tell you the truth bro, as opposed to what people here will say, sticker DO NOT give you extra power.






    BUT THEM BLU SHITZZ DO!!!!

    Although i really do appreciate that ya'll are concerned about my safety.
