Wish you were closer to drive my car. Suspension is dropped 1.5 front, 1.7 rear, Buddy Club Race Spec Coilovers (cost me $1200), rear LCA's, every imaginable Cusco brace (upper and lower), oversized sways, adjustable end links F&R, AVO braces, 255s square, FI, 3" exhaust, etc. Car may be too stiff for your liking, but I have no issue driving it 4 hours to Portland for a meet and I'm 58.
Weren't you in the convoy from WA to Perrin a few weeks back?

Nah, that was another guy with a white/red set up. He has different wheels then me and theyre a different color too.

I'm not looking to develop this car into a track car, i want it for a fun daily driver and weekend trip car. I'm more into the style and look of this car than anything. I have had my track days and have a couple less cars because of them

Id be more than happy to go for a ride tho if you're down here for the next perrin event or if im up north.

If you want to go low, well that really limits your options and you will have to tolerate the stiff ride and lack of forgiveness that the low springs provide.

The Eibach sportlines are great for agressive driving, but for a relaxing enjoyable drive across town..... well.... relaxing enjoyable isnt how I would describe them.

Did some reading after he gave the RCE yellow recommendation, seems to be pointing toward what I'm looking for.
Will probably be ordering them soon.

Its what I would have gotten if I had it to do over again.

So far the swift spec R springs seem just what I wanted, a bit firmer but not harsh, a bit of a drop without sacrificing ride quality.

Full review when back from Bend in a few days
