    Finally installed mine! Alignment was fine and no camber kit was needed. The best part is the handling. So much less body roll!

    I'll post pics once I wash the car. It's so dirty now. :oops:

    Oh....you guys make me feel jealous. I feel I'm going to get tein tomorrow. At first I thought I'm going to get rim first then the spring. What do u guys recommend? Rims or Spring first? At now I only can afford to buy the tein spring.

    Same as the thread starter. Tein S-Tech and KYB GR-2. It rides great, noticably stiffer than stock and less body roll. My mechanic estimated the car lowered by 2" or a little more.

    Going to buy some washing supplies and get wet. Pics coming soon as promised.

    dassler, you get the JDM / World Spec Galant, that's so nice. IMHO, unless you DIY, try to install the springs and shocks together to reduce the labor charge. So in this case, you should go for rims. I didn't know they are so lenient in Brunei. When I was in Singapore, the cops were on ricers' asses ALL the time and they particularly target Civics. (Hohoho~)

    The springs here costs BND/SGD$485 included with the labour charge. So, since I cant afford the rims now, i think I'm going for the spring first.

    The police don't really bother with the lowered car here.

    Finally, pics are up. Enjoy!












    And I noticed that my right headlight has condensation after washing! Ugh! I need to fix that. Anyone got good ideas?

    Sorry, no rims.

    1) No $$$!
    2) This is my daily driver / winter beater.
    3) I drive long distances often, so I need the ride comfort.

    I rather save up for an all out sports bike to ride in summer. It's going to be a ricer killer, ho ho ho...
