Re: Cliffsta's 1999 Sedan EX 4-Cylinder (56K) LOWERED + swaybar Page5
Finally took my car out of the 4x4 club and got it lowered.
Tein S-Tech springs on KYB GR2 shocks
Also grabbed the Acura TL 20mm rear swaybar
The pics (sorry it was raining and cloudy, I'll do better later)

Bought it used with only 3k miles from a member here for $300 shipped, then I paid the shop to put it on with my Acura TL rear swaybar.

I love 'em. The car rides GREAT. Its definately a tad stiffer but its definately not uncomfortable. I think with a slightly better shock than the KYB GR2 they would be perfect. I know the KYB wasn't designed for lowering springs but the car rides and handles EXCEPTIONALLY. The ride still blows me away. Louisiana has paved trails for most roads and I don't mind the ride... the lowness is more of a problem than the ride quality IMO. They handle very well, but I think that's largely due to the Acura TL rear swaybar. I have thrown the car into some turns at 60mph and it feels great to jump the back end loose and still have control... I've carved a few tight twisties and its held the road. I can't wait to take it to a road course and let loose.

UPDATE!
I've been gone from here for a while, but I'M BACK!!
Just got two new tires for the front. Fuzion HRI 215/45/17... Kinda broke and the shop said these are a comparable tire to my Sumitomo HTRs... in 6 mos I'll swap the other two Sumitomos for Fuzions.
Been on the factory CRAP wheels for the last year because I was too broke for tires... SOO happy to be back on my Motegis!!!!!
Also replaced the APC filter with a K&N cone filter. Haven't noticed any difference in performance, though it is a tad louder than before.
Trying to decide on taillight options that aren't ricey but aren't just plain. Thinking of the LED taillights that have stock brake/tail appearance (with LEDs of course) and the smoked turn signal/reverse section.
Anyways, some pics to prove I'm not lying!
My driveway is very slanted; the car doesn't have as bad a boatlook as this pictures make it seem.
