You got a good deal cause the TRD Sportivo springs are listing for around $400 in japan. How's the ride quality? The drop looks nice too.

The ride, oh much much better now, especially with the new tires/rims. It is lower to the ground, and on top of that, it seems to be much smoother and glides better in the air when going faster.

The car does not tilt or sway as much front/back/side to side, so when pressing on the gas, the forward motion is more straight forward then having the feeling of the car front come up off the ground/the back sink if you all get what I mean.

As for everything else, like hgihway driving, its sick..... I can turn through traffic like there was no tomorrow, except that this is not a sports car lol!!!

All in all, two things. It feels MUCH better now, but on the down side, the bumps feel MUCH worse. I mean especially since if you hit them hard enough or a deep enough one, you will buttom out and thats not good for the car.

I like it. Thats all and I know I made the right choice in having bought them and installing them.

Wonderful rims! They look amazing, I've never seen spokes like that. Thumbs up! And props on the springs... now you just need the matching shocks.

Ignore? Guess all my time spent PM'ing your ass to all your questions was ignoring you then too? You got balls my friend!

Nice, thats the answer I get, even after offering to install your springs and half ass HID kit your shop tried to install, only for you to get a WET headlight?? You mentioned your spring install, and how you didnt cut the bump stops, I wrote you back on the many negatives there would be

Kiss off then, dont ever ask for my help or info on anything.

People cant take criticism about the things they do then do them right in the first place. I listen to people when they tell me about things that I have no friggin idea what I am doing. Its called learning...
