    You're right 03EP3SiHB, maybe he should have just bought some springs so his stock shocks would blowout and ride like shit. I didn't buy Mugen ONLY because I liked how it looks, but because the quality and performance is amazing, and if I'm going to lower my car I want to do it once and do it right. Basics were my 2nd choice, first for a while actually, but from the sounds and the hell Type X has been through with fixing them I chose Mugen.

    Mugens have a similar TEIN/EIBACH SPORTLINES drop but with Mugen quality shocks.

    Perfect setup IMO

    i didn't knock your guys' Mugen suspension, I know it is good stuff, but the drop is not significant. I am actually working with KYB with their new AGX Shocks adn Struts which will be available in August. I am personally going with the Ground Control Coilovers and KYB AGX's all around. I was just saying that the drop is not that low, that's all whiteboy, okay??? You understand me, d00d???? ;)

    Yea, the Mugens aren't the setup you want if you want the slammed look. One of the reasons I wanted them is because I knew it wouldn't drop the car much. With the roads I have to deal with everyday, I couldn't have gone with much more of a drop. I auto-x every month and swap my 18's out with the stockies w/ Falken Azenis. Once that is done the lower profile of the Azenis makes the car another 1/2" to a 1" lower, and I really have to be careful then.
