at the rear yes its relatively easy. at the front? thats a problem; drop the lower spring perch on the strut, crash into the tire; drop the strut on the knuckle, crash into the cv joint. Remove the top strut mount? possible but then isolation is totally gone. I am working on it. All depends on how low you want. I am waiting on the answer from Nobody2u on measurements like I just posted. Then I can see what is possible.
finally installed my yyz springs today!
didnt drive the car much just from my buddys house to my gf's than home.
will go out in the afternoon and drive more and see how much better they are over sportlines.
but just down some shity roads i always drive on the ride feels alot better over my sportlines!

If you run R tires and YYZ springs at the track, the cornering speeds will be much higher, and you really need to make sure you run your cars to the exact correct oil level and check it after every session. Without a trap door oil pan you risk starving the oil pickup in the wet sump and that is very bad karma.

Sorry in the process of buying a house, so they are all pissy n **** about spending money before the closing. I'll get a set soon.
Im in the process of saving some money and getting some different rims for the track and probaly getting some track tires...nothing like slicks or that....what tire would you recommend....only requirements are DOT approved and I can run on the street during the summers here in southern califorina....maybe in the range of a 100-180 treadwear rating....
