No reason to shell out the big bucks on coils if you're going for a certain look. Unless you are going for performance of course because the race is in the rebound.

Put H&R springs on my 09 Touring w/out sport package this past weekend. Loving it. Noticed improved cornering immediately. The drop is awesome. Will have some better pics after a bath and wax.

that looks great, exactly what I want. You can probably judge this better because it is your car, but would you say your drop is similar to this even in person and not pictures?

Kevr removed the rubber lower mount, that's why the rear has a bigger drop.

Hi, I see you have H&R springs too, would you say the drop is similar? I want the drop to look like its on coils but no so low to the point where I can't drive it anywhere.

Also, what are some possible problems with removing the rubber lower mount?

azn370z 12-11-2011 05:21 PM

The rear will look higher, maybe a little more than a 1/2 inch gap. I'm not sure what the problem might be. Maybe more wear and noise?

The front has a bigger gap on the black car vs my car. Opposite for the rear.
I now have KW V3 coilovers and decided to run the same height. I only adjust lower for shows!! ;)

nice...looks like im getting H&R springs too on the next paycheck.
and some spacers...most probably...but definitely the springs.

Removed what? What exactly are you talking about?

azn370z 12-11-2011 09:34 PM

The rubber piece that sits below the rear spring.

Correct. When I had the springs it allowed a few mm lower stance on the rear.

I wouldn't go taking that out. That puppy's there for good reason. I had it out when I put my coilovers in. Metal on metal and that spring moves around. Not good. Now with coils of course I could adjust the ride height where I wanted it once I had it back in place but then.... I was thinking of performance rather than looks. To each their own.
