Will a 2inch drop spring blow out stock struts on a new car ?
I have heard that it would be ok by a shop but I am uncertian if that will be ok to install srpings with a 2inch drop on stock shocks and not blow them . I always thought you couldnt go lower than 1.5 drop Any one heard diffrent ?

Yeh I think we are gonna go with H&R due to the reliability of the springs we aren't to familiar with Neuspeed but we have seen it allot in forums pages . We will probably just wait till we can buy some Konis and make sure we have a good set-up no need in screwing up a new car .

you won't screw up the car, you will just blow the shock quicker because where it would come to rest with the lowered spring its like its being compressed with the factory spring, so when it compresses with the lowering spring, it will be like pulling a dukes of hazzard on the shock every time you hit a bump, plus you'll look stupid, but other than that it ain't shit

A general principle: Cheaper shocks wear out in about a year.
Chi Town Brat swears by Ground Control shocks......see where she gets hers. My $90 Tokico's went dead in about a year, but I plan to rebuild them.
Adjustable shocks allow shock travel with lowered springs, but they are not cheap.-Bob
