I dropped mine off today with James and all the cool guys at Tanabe. The R&D will be done tomorrow.

Parts should be on the market soon.

They installed a set of the NF210's. A nice drop but not as aggresive as the DF210's. James wanted to see how it rides with the mild drop and then we will try the lower DF210 springs to see how it does. Give them a call, the springs are already available.

Here's a pic of the iQ with the NF210 spring drop. It shortened the wheel gap by about half.



Before the springs...
