I replaced my OEM sport shocks with some Neuspeed/Bilsteins.
I kept the OEM sport springs, and put the Neu/Bils on the lowest perch (thanks for the idea djnelsen). I went from a 3 finger gap all the way around to a 2 finger (tight 2 fingers in the front). This is exactly the amount of drop I wanted. If you wan't to slam your car, get new springs. The ride is a little bit harsher, but not much. Body roll is reduced, and everything feels more solid. I need more time on the twisties for a more detailed review. I am very pleased with the drop, and the ride. Big thanks to Mike Kim for doing the install. He did a great job. I'm having problems posting pics right now, but shoot me an email and I'll show you a before and after. BTW, I have a 2000 1.8TQM.
