Crx's have a high ride height, so thats why it looks like it has bearly been dropped, I am going to cut 1 coil in the rear to even them out.
ok, dont cut, leave them how they are.. you will get really bad bouncing because you will shorten spring travel. also, what shocks/struts are u using?

I have a Saber Performance muffler w/ custom SS 2.25in piping from cat back. sounds pretty darn good if u ask me.. i'll do a sound recording in the summer.

Trust me, I have cut so many springs on my cars, with tons of different crx's. People get this idea if you cut springs it makes the car bouncy, well ---- yes it will if, you cut the things in half, and your riding on the bump stops, you have to be smart about it. I only cut a coil off, and the bump stops are already cut in half. The strut still has plenty of travel. I think I'm going to cut another 1/2 coil off to get my desired ride height.

True its better to cut stock springs rather than ones that have already been dropped, since the spring rate will incredibly change. But its ok for now...

LORD, a 3" exhaust... Jeff, that's making me Jelous. I've got a spot in my exhaust that's got a 2" section of pipe :( I'm replacing it soon with a 2.5" to the back.

Ok, I dont know if it was mountainman mufflers, I will do a check later..

How much did it cost? everything. was around 400ish

Muffler alone was 200, and then the piping and res as another 200.
