Look at the Tanabe NF210 and DF210. Search them on ebay, not much more in price and everyone loves them, including me.

So I deleted all my posts in this thread because these springs are crap. I have been driving on them for four days. They don't feel bad but heres the deal. I thought I was parking in a shadow or something because the drop heigth looked different from the left to right in the rear. It looks different cuz it is different. The goddamn shit is off by two full fucking inches. I am going to demand a refund on these fuckers and go with the Tanabe Springs. I look like a fucking dumbass driving around on this shit. They are total fucking crap.

Ok so I was the Guinea Pig who gave them a try. They suck. Totally fucking suck.

Thanks Chris,

I'll check around. Luckily I just got paid. I was going to buy my wheels but looks like I won't be doing that until next month. I really wanted a full 2 inch drop but everyone seems quite please with the Tanabe Springs. I really don't have much time to think about since my car is in the state it is in and I'm not putting the stock back on.

Well I just ordered a set of Tanabe DF for 155 shipped. I only save 15 Goddamn dollars on the Zenn in the first place. Now I'm out the money until I get this streetsportindustries place to refund me. Anyway the shit is obviously defective so I am hoping it won't be a problem.

I'll be spending another Sunday afternoon very soon installing springs.
