Wow, nice work. I think I'd raise the rear just ever so slightly though.

Car looks nice. :)

Jordan could definitely pull it off!! Would be so sick

Thanks matt. But those fender flares... :puke:
That would look sick. I may do it if I keep the wheels.
But probably won't. They would be harder to sell that color.

Thank you for your opinion man! :thumbsup:
lol it was actually a little higher but my cousin said I need more camber haha.
I am getting her into the honda business; She learns quick.

Gotcha lol. Just looks like the front is higher than the rear, like I see more of the tire in the front I think. But I can understand the need for more camber in the rear, my day is coming in that regard lol.

Tbh, the front rides kind of shitty. I dunno if my coils are blown or if that just how it is being so low or FF 1's just aren't made to stand it. Idk. But that is my the front isn't as low. People say can't use camber kit in the front because I'l hit the control arm even more. I'm still learning all this but I just want a smooth ride and I'm far from it right now.

You aren't going to get too smooth of a ride with cheap coilovers.... maybe you need to cut some holes in your strut towers if its hitting. Or maybe the preload is higher in the rear if the front seems bouncier. Just my guess though. I've never owned coilovers

nice ride jordan

but if you're looking for a 'smooth' ride with a slammed car I really dont think you're gonna get it. its gonna be either you get hella slammed on some stiff coils (depending on your road conditions i guess..) or u go for comfort and not SLAM your ride.. :/ thats my opinion

Idk what brand of coilovers is most reputable but if anyone can help me out here please feel free. I've been pondering the whoe strut tower cutting idea for awhile, just can't get myself to do it. Until I fab up something to cover the holes.. I won't do it yet. But thanks jon.

I've never changed the stiffness/softness of the spring if that makes any since. I know you can tighten/loosen them but idk what would be better for me.
P.S. this is why I'm looking for another daily driver. Being slammed is cool and all, but it isn't practical to have my car the way it sits and beat it to hell all the time. I love it but it just isn't worth it.

Thank you sir!
