The Ultimate Raceland Coilover Review!

lol, well there ya go. If that is how you want the car, looks good to me. The car in general looks good, too. Nice work. Any other plans in the future for the car?
The only thing I would suggest to keep an eye out for is rust around the bottom portion of the strut. If you bent the fork to install the rear struts, the paint or whatever is on it may crack, exposing the metal to water/air/salt causing rust to form. It should be fine, but just something to watch for of course.

I see this thread was still kicking 3 days ago, I was looking at this very set for my 94 si, I'm running Dropzone shocks with megan coil sleeves maxed out, and I'm still not as low as I want to be, I'm running xxr 002's 16x8 with +0 offset, -5 degrees camber in the back, ad -2 up front, with stretched and pulled fenders 2'' in the front. I was looking on the Raceland site and it says this kit is only good for a 3'' drop, from the looks of your setup, you've gotten more than that out of it? do you have a picture of yours from the side? and did you say that your rears are maxed out, but your fronts can still go another 1.5''? I was torn between this, and the "EMUsa" ones that are on ebay, laugh if you'd like, but 2 of my buddies have the EMUsa ones, and they surprisingly are pretty good quality, better quality than the Godspeed and Skunk2 Pro-S ones as far as non-adjustable damper is concerned. Basically I'm just looking to go lower than a sleeve over kit, but still maintain a nice smooth ride...please help with any advice, and additional pictures that you can!

ya the rear is maxed out but the front i could go low enough to where the top of the tire would hit the pinch weld in the wheel well. these are awesome for daily driving. super smooth and ive never bottomed out. i was actully gonna drop the front a little more because i havent bottomed out. if you got these and set the rear all the way down. and with your 16's and the camber you should be sitting just above the rim super flush and nice aggresive fitment

Sure, as it sits now or after the new raceland install? I'll probably order them this week, but I won't get a chance to put them on until closer to the end of winter. I'll upload a couple pics of it after work though
