Lowering my FD

Hello

My FD is almost concidered an offroad car nowdays and i want to slam it in the ground

today i have old KYB adjustable shocks with a little **** with 4 positions. and unknown springs.

The problem is that i mostly use my car for street n strip and need it a little softer in the back. what should i do? also running M/T 26/10.5/15-16 in the back so want it to fit



dont have lots of cash over right now so dont want to spend a fortune on HKS drag coilovers or something like that. want to make the most bang for the smallest buck

The cheapest thing to do would be to get some Tein S-Tech or H&R springs. Either one will lower the car quite a bit.

Yep, that looks like stock height. The angle of your photo just isn't too flattering. Above is an old picture of a friends FD which had stock suspension at the time the photo was taken.
