Talking JDM Spoon Suspension Setup Install
I just had Gimme install these for me. He had to drill out the holes from 17mm to 19mm for the GD3s USDM bolts which took about an extra 10 minutes. But other than that they are Perfect for DD. The ride is just as good if not better than stock but with a 100% better response to turns and braking. I'd say that it gave a 1.25 drop which is exactly what I was looking for. Here are some pictures:

they were actually very nice to install. quality products are easy to work with. oh and yes, it is necessary to drill out the holes on the front strut.

IMO, that drop is perfect!

The front holes were the only thing that need to be moded. the setup came with everything I need the only thing that were reuse were the Bolts and cap from inside the engine bay.
