soldiercontreras -- thanks man! i'm gonna get the kenwood DDX7015 too eventually.

b0unce -- not sure. we turned them all the way down, then turned em up 20mm as instructed by tein. when it was done i thought the back sat a lil too high so we turned the rear down .25". came out perfect imo.

to be completely honest, i don't know how it came out like that. i didn't even wax it. that's just a simple wash w/ meguiar's purple stuff.

is it quite and smooth still? or is it sqeaking?

daewonder
03-29-2005, 03:32 AM
nope, no squeeking. my homie who did the installed lubed everything up real nice. and yes, when the road is smooth, the ride is smooth.

so its only smooth on smooth roads? its pretty harsh then on no so good surfaces?

daewonder

you're gonna feel the road riding that low. if the road sucks, the rides gonna suck. it's not horrible/neck-breaking but it's not comfortable either. if a comfortable ride is priority, going low is prolly not for you.

Very very nice car, BSP is my favorite color on the tC. The drop looks great.

Yeah, who cares about the Tein's. What kind of wax do you use?!

daewonder
04-06-2005, 07:57 AM
i just use meguiar's cleaner wax. foam pad to apply and microfiber to buff off. nothing fancy. i think maybe the reflection is enhanced a little from sharpening the pic in photoshop.

have you gotten it aligned yet? some tire shops wont even talk to me when they found out i had it lowered :p

:(

i haven't gotten it aligned yet. i'm not worried though cause there's one shop here that all the import heads go to. shouldn't be a problem for me. good luck finding a shop to do it.

What's the story on the rear panel they say you have to remove to install these? Any pics of what was modified to install these? Assuming it's the Tien EDFC of course..
