Default My 2000 Ex

Alright, so here is my 2000 Ex. Ive owned it for four years now and the only mods Ive added are the short ram intake, Greddy Evo 2 catback exhaust, B&M short shifter, and the MB Motorsport 17"s. Check out the pics. Now guys (and gals) Im in a bit of a bind. Im not sure if I want to do a complete motor swap, or just slap on the infamous bolt on turbo kit. Im leaning more toward th kit as it is a bit more affordable, but a K20 motor sounds pretty damn nice. First thing on the docket though...suspension. I want to drop the car between 1.5" to 2". I have no idea what brands I should go with for springs/shocks...suggestions? Also, will I need to f*** with the camber at all, or will I be able to get away with a simple alignment and upgrade the strut bars??? Please throw any and all suggestions at me. Keep in mind, I DO NOT want to go rice. Would like to keep it "clean and slick."

Thanks!

Take a look at the suspension forum, and the forced induction forum, and read the stickies there.... you will find a ton of useful info.

LoL. Ballin, you have the same wheels? 17 inch MB's?

How much drop do you have on your car? I think its perfect! Looks really good. What suspension kit are you using?

Yea, I take really good care of her. Actually today I painted the valve cover black and replaced those nasty blue plugs with some Duralast ones. I'll post pics tomorrow.

BTW - what is EJ8?
