I'm hanging on to the wheel studs just in case when I lower it I'll have to use them. And get some spacers. I know I will end up with some negative when she's dropped.

It has Tokico Illumina's on it already and I would prefer to just do a spring and save my money for more important upgrades.

That's like me buying a supra TT talking **** to some college student driving a bone stock civic with good fitment because it doesn't live up to the supra i BOUGHT as is.
I could care less about peak numbers in any car. I'm not impressed anymore by things like that. Building a car that is well=balanced (and it doesn't have to be over the top or super modded either), that's something that's admirable.
He did just ask a question but i'm throwing it out there that people who live in glass houses need not throw stones and if you dont know the difference between how a supercharger acts and how a turbocharger acts you need to quit focusing on your image and actually educate yourself.
Lifted fc needs gravedigger paintjob. My sa22 avatar needs some bigfoot photoshop.
I do not understand why anyone would make a monster truck out of an rx7. Sad, really.

So the Tanabe gf210's,, how much of a drop are they? On the Tanabe site it looks to be 1.5" on the front and rear. Is this accurate? We all know some springs drop more than they are rated for.

I had mine on Tokico Blues AND I wish I had them on an adjustable strut...would have made the ride a wee bit softer for these shitty montana roads when I wasn't in the mood for spirited driving.
Bummer because I just sold mine but you can get them for 215 shipped on ebay. Hell, look in the classified section..they are always up 4 sale from someone switching to coilovers.

Yeah, Tanabe's cliams are pretty accurate. It dropped mine about 1 1/4 in the front and 1.5 in the rear. Gives you quite a bit of negative chamber in the rear though, easily fixed with a camber rear adjuster.

I figure a body kit will bring the car down visually too. So I'll get one. Just have to figure out which one.
and send us pics
