Default A few pics of my new goodies!

I got some QA1's all around a driveshaft loop, k-member, upper and lower control arms and some subframe connectors
I raised the front a half an inch but now I think it is too high Tell me what you think!

You think the front is to High? Ahh , No. Any lower and I would swear you had airbags. Sits just right if you ask me.

Damn.

Your front end is low. It looks good though.

I like the red suspension parts too.

btw were bolts that hold the spring down on the strut rusted on really bad? If so how did you get them off?

Purdy. How much did everything cost you and how does the car ride/handle/launch now?

Thanks for the comments!
I ended up cutting one of my front shocks in half to get it apart but the other one came right off.
I'll have to check to see what I paid for everything, I got everything from speed engineering for pretty damn cheap!
I'm still messing around with the adjustments cuz with them set all the way soft on the shocks its really bouncy and set on 6 its rough as hell!
I only tried launching once so far with them set on the softest setting and even though I didn't have any traction the front end seemed to come up quite a bit It actually kinda scared me lol
My tips are pretty heinous I need to get them re-chromed.

personally i love the slammed look so i'm voting for lower it more, but function wise that'd be right. i bet that setup is like night and day to stock. looking nice bud!
