are you going to install yourself? lower with 1.2-1.5 and see how you like it. then drop more if you want more. you would scrap everything if lower than 2 inch

*Notice that there are 3 numbers. Foot lbs of torque would be the second number in parenthesis.

For example, the rear end link to the control arm: 38 (388, 28).

I installed it myself with no help yesterday, took me 9 hours, mainly due to bolt removals and reinstalling the hub assembly back to the control arms. I started at 3:40 PM, finished at 12:20am . I maxed out on the ride height adjuster on my coilovers. Even though the yonaka coilovers I bought says 0-4 inches adjustable ride height, I could only drop from 36cm to about 32.5cm on the front, and 37cm to 33cm on the back, and 1in = 2.54cm. Even though I couldn't go any lower, I am very happy with the current ride height. Here are the pics before and after.
