    This is as low as I dare go...I can barely get to my dad's house and I have to drive on full stiff front and rear now. Kind of ridiculous..

    that was my only complaint with the godspeeds the shock is way to big, the newer models its not nearly as big. 205/40's will make a huge difference. Looks good though dude.
    Maybe If I just cut the bottom threads off of them? I mean, I doubt I'm ever going to raise them to the highest setting so....

    And yeah I really think I might do it at some point. Just worried about debeading is all.

    I'll post some full pichurs later doe so you can actually compliment my car

I'll upload some full pics later when I get my computer situation figured out. This is the lowest I can go because on the driver's side the bottom of the threads are very very very close to the CV boot and I don't wanna fuck with that.

    I would recommend them honestly. Unless you're like Mark Webber or something, I doubt you'll notice the difference, especially on the street

    I might get the Godspeeds if they match up to the Tein's overall.

    They lower decently from what I've seen but there is more function then lows as I live in a farm town. I've seen them on a lot of autocross cars on Hondatech and they all said they could get pretty low.

    "TEIN TEIN Super Street damper kit was designed for drivers seeking improved handling on the street and at the track. A shortened shell case is utilized to allow the most piston stroke possible, which allows for a better ride at lowered ride heights, and increased grip at the track. Great for daily driving and occasion track use, whether it be at the drag strip, local circuit, or Auto-X course. Includes both ride height and 16 levels of damping force adjustment to allow the driver to dial in the suspension for various road conditions."

    Strait from Tein's site
    I've heard some Godspeeds running the same times as Teins though, so who knows lol

    they are amazing, did not go as low as I was wanted or maybe I was doing something wrong (shock was going to rub through my axle boot) but the new owner loves them till she blew a shock but they are 3-4 years old at this point and well for the $380 I paid for them brand new I could have not been any happier with them
    wtf 380?!?!?!?

    Yes this too.

    Also here's my fucked up quarter panel from when I backed into my sister getting out of my driveway on Saturday *facepalm*

    Girl.

    Get the Mono-SS coils, much cheaper, still have damping adjustment, and they have camber plates for the front (or at least for my car they did). Sweet deal IMO.
    Jon can attest to Godspeed's amazingness as well.
