      So if I went with the gc coil kit what would be a good rate, and what koni struts and shock should I get, is all I have to do with those is cut the perches off? Thanks

        i would just go with gc's kit. pick whatever one you want
        as for rates, i'm not too picky about high rates.
        i'm on 550f 750r. rebuilding my suspension bordering the 1000's spring rate after the engine swap.
        just make sure ground control gives your shocks that are valved for your springs.

        if you really want to be dumped.
        then yes shorten your struts.

          How much does it cost them to re valve the struts?

            gc already has revalved shocks. just call them up and tell them what you want.
            but usually revalving shocks cost about 150 each

              I like your wheels.

              Tucking is possible, but not with such undersized tires OP.

                        Thanks for all your help I decided I'm going to go with koni adjustables, gc coil kit, and ie chamber plates

                          Get the GC camber plates! The IE's will raise you up a bit (from the pictures i've seen). GC camber plates are assured to give you an amount of drop.

                          GC vs. Stock.

                              That's my car up there with no springs- I did that to see how low the car would have to be before bottoming out the struts. My car is on the FK 75/50's now and it is about 2" up from that height. The only ways to go lower than that pic is to get camber plates or shorten the struts.

                              Call up Jay from GC and tell him what you want. He will tell you all of your options and help you with any other questions you would have.
