On a 2.2 you'll get about a 1/2" drop and much better handling.

nope unless you have any failures in you suspension parts you will be perfectly fine. They cant void your powertrain warranty becuase of lowering springs. And besides most if not all dealers dont cover most of the suspension. Its a wear and tear item. You want a high rise wing also? Ive been looking to trade for a wingless trunk. Just a thought.

hmph hmph i just so happen to probably want one..not sure yet lol, and this is news to me about the lowering springs...so which kind would you guys suggest? sportlines?

and..about the coilovers, will it ride rough as crap and make the coilovers break if i do put sportlines or something on?

I just installed sportlines and I love them. If you wanna spend a decent amount of money go with coilovers but if your not serious about handling and just want a nice drop definitly go with the sportlines.

with coilovers you can adjust the height to whatever you feel is best for you.
