PAin in the ass to get in ,but got it done. drivability is not as bas as some people may think and pulls alot harder and seems to hook up better even on street tires.

1 hour to do rears by my self and about 3 with me and a buddy and the cars weight as the spring compressor to do the front.

Ill post some pics to give you guys and idea of ride hight.

I know i know its bothering me a alot but hey if it realy helps they way they fell like they do i could care less.It used to spin 1st and 2nd n 275 street tires now it spins but at the sae time trying to hook in 1st and 2nd plants you in the seat harder then it ever did .. now i just need some tires.

Battery is going in the trunk next, and some skinnys for now summit pro star knockoff untill i can afford the rear rim$tires.

Then hopefully before the end of the year get the new motor in and running .. all i need are some plates that are out of stock .as soon as i can nab them ill be set to drop her in. but i have other things to keep me busy untill then.

I have Steeda drag springs and it definitely dropped my car a tad from the stock ride height, but it's nowhere close to a killer stance.

Besides wanting to plant as best as possible I also want to still get under my car with a jack / ramps. I have a car with a kit on it and a drop - absolutely pain in the ass to deal with underneath.

Looks fantastic, you won't mind that height when your times show an improvement on the 60'.

Mine was dropped 2 inches before it hit everything. now i went threw a parking lot today and did not even knwo there were speed bumps lol

Once your on the high way doing 75mph switching lanes it feels loose but i just have to adapt and drive a little diffrent.

I'm notoriously bad for not slowing down for speed bumps. If I was low enough to scrape headers or bash my front cover up then I'd be in trouble.
