    i say ditch the sleeves and find some lowering springs.if your shocks arnt blown then you ll be fine with the springs.but if you want to slam your car then i suggest saving up cash and buying a full coil over setup.

        it ll be worth it.just save up .ride is not going to get much better buying new shocks and keeping the sleeves.you ll probally end up blowing those after a while too.

            some good KYBs would be good. sideswipe has ebay coilovers on and his ride was bouncy as crap until he got some KYBs. then they started ride smooth. talk to him and ask.

              Looking at his sig and MRT, I'd say about 3+ inches.

                  your not goin to get any good adjustable struts for $150-$200. the only strut that is adjustable that i know of that isnt a full coil-over is the koni yellow....which costs about $140 a piece new. sounds like you need to save your money a little longer and get rid of the junkie ebay sleeves. i dont see why people even buy those, theres something about paying $30 for suspension parts like that that just turns me away.

                      im 18 in high school. Don't make enough money with my part time job to do extras like that..i make just enough to pay my bills and have extra for gas and little odds and ends..that 150-200 dollars is wat im gettin back on my tax return.

                        it was three in the front and about 3.25 in back before i raised it up..now the tire sits flush with fender in front and there is a two finger gap in back

                        but my new car has some 7-spoke ex alloys on it so i gotta slam it lol
