It really does!! well, drop 1st this year, boost could be later. turbo kit is expensive :p. it's not a honda where you can just slam a T3/FMIC run it at low boost w/ some rising rate fuel pressure regulator and call it a day. or is it?

Dropped on D2 piece of junk crap.... way too low for my taste Sad adjusted it all the way up and I have no droop travel so the front shocks are topping out... take down another 3/4 inches now it is soft as hell and rubs on big bumps and when the car is leaning on the inner fender. will not buy another coilover with preload only.... I don't need to do honda crawl but still need to be really careful on the road...

but I'm done playing with it. corner balanced twice when it's 1st drop and after I try to gain some droop travel. no more budget for it. btw, I saw castone coule of days ago on woodlawn rd in guelph, doesn't even wave hahaha....lol

i was considering getting d2 coilover.

it's way stiffer than stock for sure, but since I rode around in full pre-load for a month it felt soft when I reduce the spring rate. I'm not sure if the pre 05 facelift/changes has separate height and spring rate adjustment. the 07 and up one doesnt.

D2 is cheaper than most, and appear to be better than e-bay coilover.
