Believe it or not I've had the Tanabe Precedos in my room for about 2 months now. I'm either not going to put them on YET or not at all. I don't want to put springs on without shocks, and I might want to autocross and/or roadrace before I do that. See how the car feels with the stock suspensions, get an alignment, race some more, than maybe do suspensions mods.
I've also been doing some reading to determine how much of a drop would be optimal, and 2" might be too much. I'm not sure yet.
At any rate, I don't want to hurt the car's performance by modding it. The only mod i've allowed myself to do that slows me down are the rims. Why? because I got em dirt cheap and it takes 30 min to swap the stock rims back on http://www.newcelica.org/ubb/wink.gif
I see your point tho, the car would look better slammed. But I don't want to do it if it's not for the best http://www.newcelica.org/ubb/smile.gif

Your car looks sweet. I am running the Tanabes on stock shocks. Its a little more bumpier, but it doesnt hinder your performance, infact I feel alot less body roll, so I would say its effective to say the least.
