I found H7R's on Thmotorsports website, now the only question I have is which should I get, sport or race springs? Anyone with experience on this?

ssc and cm are the same.

get direct from cm (i think thats the one) because ssc doesnt sell them anymore. one of them dont sell anymore

Cool, CM is still selling. ZZP has SSCs for sale. I'd rather spend $170 shipped from CM than $250 from ZZP especially for the same product

from what i understand the sport springs lower it evenly and the race springs give the car more of a raked stance

Low and level, the Eibach Sportlines are great. They work with stock SS struts and shocks too.

Now I've narrowed it down to 3...

SSC
H&R
B&G

Looking for the best drop but trying to keep some handling... Ugh, decisions...

I think CM/SSC is the way to go. I just hope they settle decent. I'm looking for an almost flush look.

What's the difference?

Honestly, I don't know, but apparently there is a newer version of SSCs for the TC, but who knows what's true on this forums lol.

damn it!

Okay, I think it's SSC or H&R... I really want a nice hunkerd down stance because the sedans just look badass like that (tires pretty much flush with the fender). That leans me towards H&R's. But the ride is like stock with the SSC's... Rack spacers needed with H&R's? I'm gonna look up a price on those too.
