What im thinking is that we might need to meet up every so ofter to go over NEM6 stuff. Serious shit, might even need beer at it! Props to mccorange for the beer @ quabin!

Im looking at a coilover kit I was told springs and shocks need replacing. Im like WTF! So spend 100 more than eibachs and yellows and get coilovers. So rims and tires coilovers....... could get pricey.

From all the reviews I read, if you dont mind the rough ride then coilovers are the way to go. Also with the adjustable height it gives you the ability to raise and lower your car when needed.

For the cheaper route springs and shocks are a win but you lose out on adjustable suspension so going with an aggressive drop might work against you.

For me I am sticking with shocks and springs (tien H). Im old school and I dont need that much moar loaw.
