new pics today after installing the monroe stuff last night. for reference... this is Tein S-Tech springs 1/2 coil removed from the front only + monroe sensatrac struts for the toyota echo and sensatrac 5870 shocks in the rear. the ride and stance is exactly what i was hoping for.

i expected to feel a difference but i don't. my guess is 1/2 a coil isn't really enough to noticeably alter the spring's performance? because it felt the same as it did before cutting them. i know there's a guy on here that cut 1 1/2 coils from the front of his S-Techs and there's just no way i could have brought myself to do that. that would be way too low for me. this now is as low as i am willing to go with being my daily driver and all.

yes now that i recall... you are the guy! lol.

he would be the better person to ask if the spring cutting affected the ride at all.

and thanks shortbus!
