As above. Pictures Please. How much drop did You get over the standard OEM springs ? I fitted these to mine V2 Sti and there is no difference in height.

Hi. These are Brand New. I just got told that they WILL NOT lower Import model. The guy I spoke with said that he had exactly same problem with his V2. He ended up with Tein springs. Problem sorted. Nice drop, about 1 inch gap.
So these springs are for sale now if anybody interested. They were fitted only once for about 30 mins yesterday.

These are not really expensive, but is it really neccessary to fit these after lowering the car? I would keep the P1's only if they will drop my car a bit more than it's now.

So all votes for P1 Springs then ! Ok, I'll give them a go and try. Will give them a few days to settle down, if don't go any lower I'll start looking for something different.
Oh, I'm running Kayaba Excel G shocks if that makes any difference.
Cheers Guys

I fitted the Eibach springs from Woodbutch/FB tuning on my Ver6 Type R and as they do lower the car by approx 20mm. But that's not the point. The point is it completely transformed the std old, bumpy, kangrooing JDM suspension to a much smoother, tighter and controlled set up. These springs are better IMO than Tein etc for UK roads.
