    I measured a while back and as my car sits the lowest part of the frame is 4in off the ground. and there is probably an inch of space more I could go if I had coilovers.

    If yu dont care about tracking the car and do not drive the car hard through corners, then just get some cheap ones-- if you slam the car and do not correct the geometry it will handle like shit.

    Far too much to list

    like i said before i could care less how it handles its my daily, i dont beat on it, its slow as could be so it might as well be low.

    Im not getting shitty coilovers for 2 reasons.
    1.they bounce like crazy, and when they bounce thats when you fuck stuff up. You need STIFF coils to go ultra low..
    2.I would rather not worry about shitty parts breaking on the car, and get nice parts to begin with.

    and for the love of christ stop quoting the same god damn pic of the black car!!

    That car looks lower than it is; becuase H&R springs don't drop the car that much.
    Post more pics of the car if it is really that low.

    OP, sounds like you know what you're aiming for.
    Like I've said, get some KW's. You won't be let down with the drop.

    Here's my drop on PSS's. Getting dropped another 1/2" or so as soon as my new setup comes in.

    here are a few i took, please dont flame the asa's...it was on there when i bought the car.

    Lens on my digital camera was dirty and didnt find out till later...but here are a few, i still need to adjust the front to go a little lower.

    KW V1 Coiloves. I believe the back can still go lower, but im rubbing so i ll leave it like this for now.









    Left rear rubbing in this pic was from the PO owner with a differ. coilover setup.

    Thanks.
    Obviously I'm not a fan of ASA's.
    If you want a set of really unique wheels, find some 5x120 gotti's.

    Eh, the only real similarity would be that most gotti's are 5-spoked. Gotti's are very uncommon but very cool wheels. I think you should snag a set.
