        well, in the front not much. Maybe 1/4"? in the back, you can get around 3/4" if you take both out. I only took out the top one. It came out pretty even, with the rear having a slight amount of rake so it doesn't look like the back is bottoming out :P

        it would be awesome if you could get a GC setup for our cars, but I don't know how much more lowering the CV axles can take in the front. maybe another 1/2", if they were new!

        of course most other spring setups should fit on our cars, although I don't know of many people brave enough to try them out. :(
