Could you post a pic of the car after the install. I'd like to see a lowered RX-8. BTW, what is the lowering range, ie 1"-3", 1"-4"? Thanks!

mikeb 01-22-2004, 07:48 PM looks nice and low
please post some daytime pics if you can later
drifter_d 01-22-2004, 09:01 PM Psychofox,
Looks real nice! Is the max drop on the HKS set-up 4 inches? How many inches did you lower it? I would guesstimate yours is dropped about 2". Provides the 8 with a more aggressive stance. How's the ride quality? Thanks for your responses and awesome pics!

i have the top wing at my house just too lazy to put it on. :p :p
rot8ryx 06-06-2004, 12:18 AM I never knew there was a range you can lower if you have coilovers..... :)
Hisakata 06-06-2004, 02:11 AM would you say these ride almost like stock?
Thanks! Looks great.

There are only 4 screws. Use the 4mm Allen key rather than tie on the other side.
Have any idea which one to set to... There are 4 holes (4 levels).
hehe. I loved mine especially after some serious waxing... now perfect!
odave 06-07-2004, 07:45 PM Awesome pics and good job on getting something to handle the corners.
I think that HKS has pretty good coilovers, but these type tend to rust on the threads after a couple of years of use. Just try not to adjust the height too much to avoid scratching the threads that could cause rusting.
rx-evolv 06-10-2004, 06:48 AM really nice,how much lower can you go..
