Work Stark III. I wanted something different. As of now I think I'm the only person to have them on the car. I know someone has Stark II but not III.

Hey no fair I'm just as much a ricer at heart. I reneged on my no mods decision and decided to go nitrous. Working on getting all the safety switches at this moment. I find it hilarious that I'm too sissy to lower for fear of trashing the shocks earlier but I have no problem blowing up my intake manifold.

Aw you guys are making me jealous! I want to get coils this summer, but not sure what

I was looking into Buddy Clubs (which I can't find anywhere online )
Maybe Megan Racing
or Function Form (but recently, I've been hearing that they're not reliable)

I wanna go atleast 2.25" drop. Which coilover to go for??????? Any help would be appreciated

I really thought I would see more people using Eibach products in this thread.

I would think they would have the best product since they have been in business the longest. I'm planning on picking up a Pro-kit in the near future.

Is it because they are not a Japanese company?

Eibach makes a good product but something about them has just always seemed 'off' to me......idk i just don't like them for some reason

Planning on getting the DF210 in next week. I was wondering if anyone knew the torque spec for all nuts and bolts. like top strut mounts, rears, etc etc.. and also, I am planning on doing this at my auto class. How long did it take you guys?

edit: I found the torque specs.. haha

bolts for when putting back together.
the strut bolt holding the spring on. 65 ft.lbs.
the top strut bolt used to hold the strut on the car. 33 ft.lbs.
the two lower strut bolts 65 ft.lbs.
