Nice. I actually have a set of Sportlines on the way. I bought the Tokico "Advanced Handling" package, but it didn't lower it very much in the front. So I bought the Eibachs off Ebay for about half price, brand new in the box. I'm hoping they will drop the front to the point I like, but the rear is just perfect. So I'll be running Eibachs in the front and Tokicos in the rear.

i like the sportlines but idk about the tokicos in the rear and sportlines in the front did you check the spring rates? i would think the sportlines would be stiffer which would make you understeer even more or are you just going for looks?

Right now I'm just going for looks. However if the drop is good in the front, I might change the rears too. I'm just praying I won't need a camber kit.

and reaper will also tell you its not about camber its about toe
toe eats tires
also for the rear you can do the washer trick (just google it)

The washer trick does work for the rear. Thats what we did. I just got an alignment so I should be good for a while until the springs come and get put on.
