Update 9.20.10 Decided i wanted to change things up, so i sold my Recaro and ordered a Bride Stradia Sport Japan. Scheduled to arrive in November. Sold my Tein SRC and picked up a set of Mono Flex in order to help fund the expensive seat. I miss the SRC already...take a look at the difference in quality between stock, Mono Flex and SRC (left to right). While the Mono Flex looks similarly built to OE suspension, the SRCs are on an entirely different level. Check it out.

Wow...I never liked those wheels until I saw them on your car. Looks sick! Btw, does your exhaust sit any lower than the stock ones?

Did you weigh all three shocks? When I got my Tein RS I saved 1lb on each front corner, and 3lbs off each rear corner. 8lbs total weight savings for suspension is pretty good! Especially considering its unsprung weight, and I like to think my butt can tell

Either way, nice car
