You could check out v6p. More people are running Megan setups over there.

Thanks man both those helped out. I was already leaning towards the D2's and now im 95% of the way there in getting them. Unless an unbeatable price comes up for FF or Megans but for now just gotta wait a week then buy my coilers :) cant wait!

and also i have a question if you could help me answer it.
i plan on putting in my coilovers myself with a buddy of mine and i have heard you need to get ur alignment done after you change out ur suspension. is this true? or just preference?
and also vie been looking for DIY on installing new coilovers on 6GA but cant seem to find any that are helpful with step by step instructions. or maybe im just not looking hard enough

i think you should get an alignment ASAP after u lower ur car because all the camber and watnot will be all diferent and uneven all over..i mean you can drive around with out an alignment but your tire were will be all fudged up..i got mine 3 days after i lowered it

Usually people say to wait a week after installing new coilovers/springs to let it "settle," but I think after driving it a couple days is fine. Just don't drive all crazy.

You should get an alignment maybe twice a year or after you've hit a bit pothole or something.
