Semi lowering type of appearance ? Well as the car sits now, with TD's on it, it bottoms out on almost everything. And, yes, I do take everything that I can at an angle, and go slow over what I can. However, just with bumps in the road it will bottom out.
It has the Sportlines on now; however, what I'm somewhat curious about is how bad/if it would look by putting stock rear springs on, but leaving the front with the sportlines. The rear wheel and tire is 17x11 (w/ 315's), which I assume would take up a little more fender gap, but I just don't know if it'd be enough. As well as if the stance would be "that much" off of an angle.
Here's how it looks currently. (Minus the borla catback setup, it's with LT's & TD's now.)

i have sportlines on the front and stockers with the hose mod in the rear. i had planned on swapping them in when i went to the track, but it doesn't look too bad so i just left them in.
this video might give ya a good idea of what they look like.
ignore me getting mawled by the big block car beside me.
sorry about the quality, it went to crap when i uploaded it for some reason.

Im Putting the Strano's up front next week, I got the SLP Tuned package in their now (1/2 drop and Bilsteins)Front sits like a 4x4 which is why Im getting the Strano's but the back looks good with a 1/2 drop. Like it alot better than the stock setting.
Just curious though, what is the hose mod?
