The front might be slightly higher. I guess they had the springs reversed...the mechanic admitted he didn't "follow the instructions..."

ummm drop?

were you only expecting that much of a drop? man i cant get over this any other import ive worked on, if u put springs on it, its slammed as in not alot of wheel gap...but these cars still have it....and these are supposed to be the lowest springs right? cause eibachs sit higher cause theyre progressive not linear...but damn and the only other choice is 2k coilovers right? i just got a 280z and its 4x4 right now but still for $505 off ebay for the illuminas and springs it looks a lil bit better (and i know itd ride better)....but not where i'd want it...slammed down. especially since im gonna put my 6spokes with 215 60 14 tires(lower pro than stock, what do you have on that one now?)....thatd make the wheel gap even bigger....but i guess it would look good with the suspension im talking about and some 16x7 fronts and 8s in the back huh fellas?
