i posted pics of sportlines (2.2" drop)

p.s. mine's a daily driver through highway and shitty college downtown streets. it is fine for dd, just no speed bumps. you should consider caster/camber plates and shocks/struts with more than a 1.5" drop, but they arent mandatory

I've got steeda springs, 1.25" up front and 1.5" on the rear. It makes a big difference. I'll get some better pics if you want.
