New Tein SS CoilOvers install and pics

Hey everyone. Well I finally did it. 2 weekends ago we (joker and I) installed my new Tein SS Coilover Suspension. We ran out of time and didn’t drop it last time nor was there time for pics so I went back over and we dropped it down.
Plan was to drop it 1” because it’s still daily and then slam it for shows. Well we spun the coils down about ½ ways to see what it would do on the driver side. After doing that it moved down maybe ¼” when the weight was back on the tire. Not happy about this we said F it and spun them all the way down. After putting the weight back on the tires it was only down ½” so that sucks. Well we then dropped the passenger side, to our surprise, both sides dropped 2”. Apparently they both need to be down to have the result. With the back up and font down I had about 1” if clearance and it looked badass, which is the one really low coke can pic
The Rear was a bit of a bitch to get to, to crank them down so we went down ¾’s the way down on the coils and not sure what kind of drop that was.
So in the end the fronts ended up going down about 2” leaving me about 2.5” clearance at the lowest point of my front and looks badass. However the side skirts will not go over a speed bump so I am bringing it back up an inch this weekend for daily. Enjoy

Setup:
-Full Tein SS Coil-Over’s
-Tein front end links
-Hotchkis Tuning Sport Camber Plates and strut brace
-Cusco Lower Arm Brace
-Tanabe Sustec Rear Under Brace
-Beatrush Front Aluminum Under Panel
To come in the soon future:
-Hotchkis Rear Camber Links
-Hotchkis Tuning Competition Sway Bars (possibly)

NOTE: All pics taken by myself or Jokker :gap:
