Default How far can I drop the car on KW v2s without changing anything else? >>

Such as rear bushings, rear sway bar and all that??

Im sure its not recommended to do this without changing the rear bushings to do the camber being all out of wack, but what are the consequences of driving with EFFED up camber? If itll be that bad?

Please, any input, ima n00b

Default LOL, ****, I just put on new tires last week too!! =( >

So just a KMAC full set of rear bushings will be sufficient?

Yes full kmac for coilovers or you can spend a little more and get the adjustable bars (better)

Default Probably... depends on how low you go. In my case, it took a LOT.

I needed adj. tie bars, a full KMAC kit, and some other goodies.

"other goodies" means new kidneys.
