Let me know what compensation you need.

I'd probably need to construct ramps first though, since my front lip will die after lowering without driveway ramps.

^Yeah same here. Do you know how to adjust camber by any chance? Nothing precise obviously but once I lower the front some more I want to add some negative camber just to minimize the rubbing until I get an alignment. I have cusco front a-arms.

Sure. It's very easy to adjust. Your car looks very low already, you sure you still wanna go lower? Ever considered air ride? I think I got a friend who's selling the complete uas kit

I moved up to a 35 series tire from a 30 series so just lowering it to match since the taller tire brought it up a bit.

I have considered air ride actually..the uas kit is the one that's compatible with coilovers right? How much he looking to get for it?

oh and that'll be cool to have a couple more guys come in for the install. We'd need a new location though. It's hard working on my driveway. and my street is rough.

We could meet at a parking lot lol. I can bring jackstands/floor jack. My floorjack clearance is about 3.5" though. (wish I had the Omega jack)
