RB springs generally raise the car an inch being that the stock springs are old and droopy. If thats ok with you theyre great springs otherwise. Id recommend either B&G springs (1.5"drop) or Eibach Ground Controls. Search for both using Google Shopping.

An SA22 isn't an FB and has no GSL model. That aside, the RB springs will be about the same
as new ones stock. I cut on ring off of mine all the way around and it sits about where I want it.

My RB springs just came in today. I'll take a picture and create a post for it once I get them on. Most likely this weekend

Suspension is all stock SA, excepting RB springs, urethane bushings up front and on the rear sway. No shims or other ride-height adjustments. Struts are KYB up front, Tokico blue rear.

The car looks a bit nose-high in teh pic, but that's my lousy camera technique. If you look at the shadow gap underneath you can see she rides very flat.
