Come on now guys, you are just straight lazy. Just go rent some spring compressors from Auto Zone for $35 and you get ALL your money back upon the return.

Since the springs are progressive, they were fairly comfortable on the street, but they SUCKED with Bilsteins. Progressive rate springs and too much compression damping make for a crappy ride for sure.
Here is a link to a pic of the ride height - I know, the car is absolutely hideous - Salvage title, all bondo, but hauled ass in the acutocross with a chip and a 3.25 diff. Yay torque.
Hope this helps,

And, yes, eta's haul ass in autocrosses. Stock I was able to pull off 12th in Novice, I actually beat some Suburu or something, I think it was a normal WRX. (course, we were both Novices). I was also only 3 seconds off from my dad in his M3 (it was about a 50 second course)
My dad and I want to get a local chapter started here. ;)
My quesiton about these springs is - what kind of camber do these things create? Would we need camber plates?
I'm highly considering some IE Stage 3's and Koni's - but, just how stiff are they? They'd probably be stiffer than the shocks my dad's putting in his car.- Sean Hayes
