looks good, actually it looks just like mine

How do you find the ride? I found mine did not suffer much, due to the fact that i kept the stock wheel size and tire profile.

so now i have my springs and my struts just came in today! now im trying to find a place to install them. Ive been spending way too much money on my car in the last month but this is the last thing I want to take care of. How easy is the install? I would love the save the money by not paying someone, but I'm afraid I will get half way through the job and be unable to finish it, haha.

Right now I am trying to get it done for about $200-$250 with alignment. I am trying to go through a few connections that I have.

Struts and springs are pretty simple provided you have the resources (tools, jackstands, ect)

yeah if you have the right tools, it's really easy, and an alignment isn't very expensive.

I've had my S-techs in my trunk for about a month waiting on a buddy of mine to install them... but I can't complain for a payment of a case of beer.

i want this job to be done ASAP! haha. Hopefully by mid next week or even this weekend. I always wanted to lower my car for years, but never came this close!

it took me about 2 hours in my driveway...some people might take more or less time, but definately doable in a single weekend.

honestly, do the teins s-tech drop your car in the rear, raises it, or stays the same? I've heard pretty much everything so I don't know what to expect.

depends on how bad your rear end sags...with the Tein's, and new struts it raised slightly, but my rear sag was pretty extreme. In general though i would be willing to bet it's very close to the same... in fact, you probably won't visually notice a difference in your rear, but the front is quite dramatic.

Alright guys, sorry to kinda steal the thread but I was putting mine in the other day and i ran into a big problem. I couldn't get the two bolts out on the passenger side rear that hold the bottom of the strut and the end of the arm.

Long story short, I cut them out and now i find out the there's a... Ball joint? on the end that I have never seen before. I've replaced springs and struts before on my parents and ex gf's cars, but I've never ran into anything like this before. anyway, I cut them off and found that the bushing that was around the balljoint thing was completely destroyed. Is there a replacement for it, or is there a way to take just that piece out, or do i have to replace the entire arm?

I'll post a pic in a few minutes of what I'm talking about. Any help is hugely appreciated.

thanks in advance guys.
