Talking Sprint Springs

Well tommorow is the big day, I will get my Sprint Springs. I will certianly put pics of before and after of my car. Im leaving the stock struts and shocks because I just can't afford it right now. I got the Springs for $149US and installation is gonna be $100 because I just can't do it alone, rusty bolts are horrible to deal with.

I will update this thread once everything is done! And ill tell you any special tips or the good and the bad of the springs.

1.8' Drop baby, here I come! (hopefully much more)

Saaaaag baby Saaaaaggg.

What size tires you running? xxx/xx/xx?

I'm thinking of getting Sprints cause my Vogtland drop just isn't low enough for my taste.

Uh oh.

Well, at least you have them on your Gen3, so you do have the right to hold your opinion on them.

The GAB system is about $1800... and custom ordered from Japan. I have a friend that imports GAB products so when I get them, I'll let everyone know how they are.

BTW, sprints still suck.
