: getting 17's, need to lower car Se-R 420 10-01-2002, 09:32 AM Well now that im gonna be getting wheels im deffinitly going to need to lower my car. anyone know any good brands i should check out? also about how much do you think this all is gonna cost me. my cars a 97 and i want it low so it looks aight not too low that its rediculous. spdracerUT 10-01-2002, 09:44 AM With our cars, if you're going to lower and do it right, you have to get shortened struts up front. Unless you like bouncing around off of your bump stops. I think the Motivationals go for $1300? Look up Scott of ShigSpeed too. He can make you a badass setup. To be on the safe side, I'd save up $1700 for the little things and camber plates. This is my opinion, put the money into the suspension first and get the wheels later. A good suspension setup will make the car handle soooooo much better. Fortunately, our stock 15's look decent. Its not like we're rollin around with hubcaps. And 15" tires are cheaper than 17" tires. Khiem spdracerUT 10-01-2002, 09:46 AM Oh yeah, check out the Teins too. Most of the guys in Japan use Tein. And I'd get the rear pillowball mounts too. Mike sr20de 10-01-2002, 11:12 AM what's wrong with the eibach/agx combo? it's cheap and effective. I don't think you need the motivational if you are not going to autocross or anything. I have the agx combo and I like it. :) OnyxEros 10-01-2002, 12:01 PM The coilovers if you have over $1k to spend If you want to spend a little less go with agx/GC ~$700 If you want to go even less go with agx/H&R ~$500 ask me why i say H&R as opposed to eibach O metro_se-r 10-01-2002, 02:18 PM Originally posted by OnyxEros The coilovers if you have over $1k to spend If you want to spend a little less go with agx/GC ~$700 If you want to go even less go with agx/H&R ~$500 ask me why i say H&R as opposed to eibach O why?:D MarkSR20 10-01-2002, 02:54 PM lol, can we say: no sagging in the back!!!! LOL. I would like to know where you can get H&R's and AGX's for 500 and the GC/AGX combo for 700??? Are these brand new prices or used??? And to SE-R 420: Give the number below a call and I can get any of the products in this post for you! Thanks again and have a good one! OnyxEros 10-01-2002, 03:04 PM well you will notice that i added the ~ sign to say that that is around about how much you would spend shox.com H&R $190 agx $360 GC $399 as far as i can tell H&R are the best you can get for the price range in terms of stiffness and lowering. I can run the agx at 3f 6r and have a decient ride and I have never bottomed out in the ~10k miles i have had them. O MarkSR20 10-01-2002, 04:35 PM those are pretty good prices. I would have to agree with you on the best bang for your buck. I wish I knew about the H&R's when I was in the market for springs. I have not heard anything bad about them and I will recommend them to anyone! Have a good one! OnyxEros 10-01-2002, 04:40 PM Originally posted by MarkSR20 those are pretty good prices.

Well if you have your business up and running you can offer the same prices right :D I saw from your site some of the products that you offer, but do you offer others mainly Toda or Jun? after i get my pace setter (i know i know) i will be in the market for cams would be nice to by from some one on the forum O metro_se-r 10-02-2002, 01:44 AM Mark, please stop posting.
