yeah you won't go flying off the road if you just eyeball each corner instead of going for a corner weigh. but he's obviously a noob, so if you don't throw the term out there he'd probably never hear of it

this fukn attitude is why you have all these retard kids running around with dumped cars that aren't even aligned. but yeah who cares about setting stuff up properly. after all, its not a race car. its a crap car

There is sooooooo much retarded horseshit flying around this thread I smelled it from TeamFC3S.

People need to learn a thing or two before buying crap they don't need, nor will they ever use, but look cool and the dumbshit kid nextdoor has it.

*shakes head*

HKS hipermax II's they go low, but being single adj only means lowness comes at the expense of travel. They work awesome though. Good valving makes a big difference.

If you just want lowness look for a double height adjustable coilover (ie you can lower the perch, or thread the shock itself into the casing).

action shot because i drive it

drftwerks is comedy man...im not gonna lie though...I like my car low with an aggressive ride height...when I get cash to properly tune, allign, and corner balance, it'll be all good and hopefully my car will still function well with an extra low appearance.

It's all a matter of preference.

My friend let me borrow his Turbo 2 over the weekend. It has Tein Super Drift coilovers on it. I've been autocrossing for 3 years now and have learned what a good "handling" car is. The Tein Super Drift were excellent in my opinion. I did have one complaint... His Cusco LSD was annoying! (Very Loud)

And the shitty red fc looks photoshopped. I doubt it is that low.

I have a turbo 2 with 3mm apex seal upgrade, large street port, new rotor housings, new cast iron housings, water jacket mod, hardened stationary gears, etc. My mod list goes on forever, but I also have a GXL I use for my DD.

Go to teamfc3s.org nub.

lol @ driftwerks


I'll post my setup once I get it in a couple weeks. I was just gonna get some decent struts and springs, but I got an amazing deal that cost less than a set of struts and springs brand new so I went for that instead; JIC SF-1 coilovers with 10-15,000 miles on em in mint condition, can't wait till they get here!

My tein drift specs ... picked up as you see for $800 used. Its an aggressive coilover ...maybe overkill but I picked it up for a really good price. Fully adjustable and i love it but if you buy it new for $1500 then that sucks.


how the car sits except I put it up maybe 1/2 higher for daily driving... see will see track time in two weeks
