dropping a car on lowered springs and standard shocks has to be one of the worst things to do IMHO. i've done this on my Si, standard shocks and PI springs, and to be honest the drive is shocking. i feel every single bump in the road, get thrown about a hell of alot. it is very unforgiving. i'd recommend to anyone to invest in a full suspension set up (shocks and springs). i am eventually doing this next month with a full g-max kit.
