silly question but when you guys are that low do you stiffen up the dampenrs so you have even less movement?

I didn't, but luckily I didn't daily drive the car the car either. The suspension is spongy as hell. Press on the back of the car and it will hit the ground. I ordered some lowering springs and adjustable struts finally.

DD here, living in the mountains. Scraping is fun and adds character, plus when **** finally breaks and falls off look at it as weight reduction

If you're coilovers allow you to go low without dropping the springs, just run a load of preload. Stiffening the springs should have more of an effect than the dampers. But for a drifter you want it soft at the back

Oh ok! On my old na I had it pretty low, and had the dampeners pretty stiff. So the car wanted to bounce around on the shitty roads here

Yeh its kinda low. Alot better than the rest

But whats up with those stickers man...
Its not cool looking, and no one is going to go on those websites.

I'd say, if you painted your car one color. got rid of all that " Yo, I'm hardcore american pink hardcore **** "
and didn't hang trinkets on your tow hook. You COULD have a GOOD looking machine.

Seems like you tried too hard to be "JDM" but you overshot it, and now it looks totally blatant.

Think Sexy Knights black FC slammed with front lip/side skirts and r33s. Stay classy
