My RS1 with before and after shots of TRD shocks and springs

05-RS1 · #1 (**permalink**) Sat., Jan 07, 2006

after a little drama with the front struts, the entire kit is finally on. i have no complaints about it whatsoever. hopefully once it settles it'll drop another .25 inches (being optimistic :P ) as you can see in the pics, before i could fit all four of my fingers in between each wheel well. after the drop it was a tight squeeze for only two fingers! Enjoy!

and im going to get my windows tinted soon. what percent are yours? it looks nice

my tint is 20%. its only been a week and i dont think it settled anymore. if it did wasnt that noticeable. i'm gonna go in and get my alignment done next week anyways. they have a lifetime deal so imma jus get that. it may take a little longer to settle lower. my bro's a-spec suspension on his rsx took a lil more then a month to get any lower. thanks for the comments

18"..came with the RS package. i think you can buy look-a-likes from scion except it'll be alloy-ish in color instead of the dark graphite

I love the look of the TRDs nothing TOO drastic, and you dont have to be ultra worried about scraping all the time.

hows your camber setting after dropping it??

05-RS1 · #17 (**permalink**) Mon., Jan 30, 2006

funny you asked..i just noticed this morning that the back seemed to settle and lower an additional 0.25-0.50 inches! the front maybe another .25 or a lil less. front camber is ok, but the rear is a little off. the alignment feels fine but i'm taking it in to get an alignment tomorow to fix all the changes made.

How come your springs are gray, and mine are red???
