Thank you sirr lol. But yea im lowered on Megan street coilovers. Im gonna wait a month or 2 and I'll probably write an in depth review. So far, I LOVE them. Driving on highways are a bit annoying but cruising on smooth roads are awesome.

She is looking nice. What wax do you use?

And you should try photoshopping the wheels on your car before you actually make a decision.

Those wider wheels and tires makes it aggressive looking. Looks good.

Thanks dude. The spring rates are 8kg by 6 kg. Theyre a little on the low scale but for daily driving and the OCCASIONAL autox session, theyre pretty good.

I would love to but theyre chewed up and kinda heavy. I know a guy that has a set of 18" TE37's on his S14 and theyre so0o0o0o much lighter than mine. If they werent so chewed up Id love to keep them but.....its not a good look lol
