neuspeed sports...only drops 1.5-1.75. you won't need to get any camber kits, rides little bit stiffer, handles well, and won't need to change out dampers right away...trim the bumpstops though. oh yeah, and cheap too.

Yeah, i was thinking about some neuspeed or other good quality Sport springs for a a little lowering, not too extreme. I just can't stand the stock height. Will sport springs be ok or will they damage the suspension? I hear its ok but am not sure? Is it true I won't need a camber kit like the previous post says?
Thanks guys

you wont need a camber kit with only 1.5-2" drop.

i have 1.5" sport lines on my rex and it handles real good. my springs havent damaged anything and im pretty sure they wont. plus they were only $75 used.

the best way imho would be to lower with a set of tein coilovers.

Well I got my sprint2 lowering springs for $40 used...heh. I just threw them on my stock struts...It's kinda bouncy but not near as bad as I imagined. Just grab some cheap springs and get some good quality struts to put them on. 1.5" - 2" is good. 2.5" and I bottom out alot (i live in oklahoma) damn those roads!
