SPRINGS!!!! I've seen your pics in the "Show off your aftermarket wheels" thread......that thing definitely would benefit from a drop. Since you already have the nice wheels, complete the look by lowering it.

Its so much easier to just wait and do all the exhaust components at once. If someone is planning on doing a full exhaust, they should just wait and get all the components (header, downpipe, cat-back) and then just knock it all out at once, rather than have to go under the car, un-bolt, and re-bolt parts on 3 seperate times.

The racing solution header is great! I don't know about ksport springs though. I'd say SSC springs (not ss/sc srings)

well i got my LSJ dp on now. and makes the car sound alot better. so i guess im going to order the springs and lower it. then get the racing solutions header and a mandrel bent catback witha magnalfo res and borla muff.

i've heard that the ksports are good springs and give us a GOOD drop. 2" in the front and 2.5" in the back.

K-Sport springs are great. And from what i've seen, probally tied with the H&R Race Springs for the lowest drop from a spring. My friend has an '05 SS/SC with the K-Sport springs, and his ride height is def a little bit lower than my 2.4SS, which has Eibach Sportlines on it.

Nice! thats good to hear.

OP> I'd say get those springs then! you already have the LSJ exhaust manifold. Its not as good as a header but it will suffice for now.

Lower it!

Well I know theres a guy on here with a blue SS/SC w/ gunmetal Kyowas and a cf SS style hood who said he had the H&R race springs, and its mad low. So I was just going on what he said.
