For all of you who are interested in my observations, here they are.

The stock springs a weak...they have massive body lean and just plain need to be changed.

I got the arospeed springs from e-bay. They were cheap...100 bucks. I felt they were light years ahead of the stock springs. They were very stiff, but not too bouncy. They prolly gave about an inch and a half all the way around. I hated the stance though. They made the front end look higher, even tho the bumpers measured the same from the ground.

I also got the tanabes from e-bay...also 100 bucks. I looked at friggin every picture on this site that I could find before going with the df210's. I loved the stance...and I love the way they look on my box. They are actually alittle softer than the arospeeds, and give just a bit more body lean....they are also much less harsh. Very happy with the df210's...

im sporting those as well and i am happy with them just that the bumpstops they come with are not that durable.... just leave the stock ones and you should be ok.... no difference in height.

will have all the pictures i took of the installation and of my car with some before and after stuff by next saturday...sorry for such a long time but i'll be out of town this weekend and i work full time and go to night school so its hard to find time to get to sit down and with all of that stuff so...but don't worry they will be up i promise and since i just got done with them tonght they do look really good, the stance is great, its like the perfect drop because i have probably like a quarter to a half an inch of clearance in the rear but thats only if im like hurrying over a speed bump, the ride feels absolutly no different, no harshness, or bouncy feel, im 110% satisfied with the springs.
