yep, I have since gone to the suspension off of stormcrow's nismo. Only got two warm up laps before my oil line failed and I crashed, but it felt very similar to the eibach/factory shock combo, just not as low. Now I'm also considering putting the eibachs on the nismo shocks after I get a couple good track days as is when the car is fixed.

wow sorry to hear that Mike. Do you mind sharing how you crashed and the details of the oil line failure. Is your engine OK?
