    save up for some springs that will lower your car more than .5 inches or so.

    Just my opinion.

      M-Tech 1. M3 springs will only drop it about an inch or maybe even 3/4", not worth it.

      Go with the M-Tech I and save up for a better spring and shock setup.

            Mileage on springs doesnt matter. According to Jay Morris at ground control, springs dont loose their spring rates over time unless there were some sort of trauma (i.e. extreme heat). So if you are looking for springs, I would be too worried on mileage.

                  you're going to pay like $100 shipped for used M3 springs. H&R sports are only ~$250. just save your damn money

                    Negative about 80-95 shipped for springs and 80 shipped for M tech 1 spoiler from Germany.

                    I however am having trouble with communicating with the seller of the Mtech as he isnt responding to my emails, i have sent him an email in german to see if that helps any but i guess ill just have to wait and see. :?

                      that's a difference of $20-$5 :roll:

                      unless you really are that broke.

                        Yeah i am just that broke actually.

                        i have about 90 bucks to spend on the car right now. :D

                        Yeah and im also consediring selling the car so i think spending 300 on lowering setup then turning around and selling the car would be kinda foolish.

                          Well wouldn't spending any money on the car be foolish then? And where do you plan on getting springs and shocks for $300? :)
