I'm not much of a drifter, but can get angle if I really wanted to and hold it at full lock and tie corners just simply because the car can...lol.

My choice is TEIN Flex Z or Cusco Street-A with SPL LCA. Flex Z probably has the best value and quickest turnaround if you were to ever blow a shock. It also comes with a camber plate, square spring rates, and great valving...it's also ridiculously affordable for what it is. PM us if you have questions!

Yeah, i left the idea at first as this may have been extra cost, but now when i have them, they are great thing to have.
now to the point.
If you think of lowering the ride, no matter for looks(if you get coils but don't rise or lower, somethings wrong, this is what they are built/made for) or more downforce on track, you come to an issue where front sway bar(well if you still have it attached) will become under an angle and will be softer due to that. you may want to set it into correct position after altering ride height.

now on another angle, leaving everything else behing, stock ones are soft or mine are just broken with dealership not finding this an issue, i fiddleled with those aftermarket ones that came with coils, and thought they are broken or something as i couldn't move the uniball by hand, something that my 2 weeks old infant can do with stocks.

this and solid upper mount on coil should be not only night and day difference but more like heaven and hell

But i'll go installing them today, so i can give some feedback overall, after about 12 hours. Install takes faster but i ain't gonna park the car after that

Cusco looks nice and do what they need to do. It's just that SPL is insanely beefy and consistent compared to any other LCA on the market.

Anybody have any thoughts on the Voodoo 13 LCAs? I have their toe rods and trailing arms, just waiting for the front and rear LCAs before I can get it all on (with BC Racing coils).

They're a bit more expensive but it really seems like the Max set would work fine, for half the price.
