The event yesterday was absolutely killer Rob! You and Chris nailed it, well done!!! Can't believe that was the first event. Like seasoned professionals....

Let me know if you go with the sleeve-over kit and how it turns out. Thanks again!

For $1k lets say they look good. Hopefully the colors are adjustable.

Yup, they are adjustable. I keep them on 10K white when I drive though, since all other colors aren't legal to drive with (You can get away with yellow or amber, but it's not worth the risk).

Mine are permanently yellow. Think it looks more aggressive than the white. Post a pic!

For lowering, look into quality kits. Dont just use springs as a shortcut!!

I was talking with Rob over the weekend, and he mentioned a sleeve-over kit, which is compatible with our EDC. If he's happy with that, I might go with it, since it's pretty cheap.

Otherwise, I'm going to have to figure out which of the Dinan suspensions systems I should go with, since they have Stage 1, 2, 3 and Racing kits, all of which also work with EDC...

I will also go outside and take some other shots of the various colors. Blue looks nice also. :-)

Imo and also based on reading a lot of threads and common sense of course is that the sleeve over kit is just a band aid too. In the end its just a spring where you can adjust the size of the drop. Dinan parts i dunno but a 2k system with no shock assembly is a bit confusing. There are plenty of full suspension kits that offer more performance and comfort than the stock edc suspension. Leave the settings on comfort, then a few clicks to adjust when you want to go stiff.

I just dont want to waste millions of dollars in r&d on some springs for looks.

Is your car zcp? If it is maybe throw some 19s on there and call it a day. I think the stock zcp stance on 19s look perfect.
