Turbo-GeoMetro

Hello all. I'm interested in lowering my LS, however i don't want to sacrifice my ride quality. I've been told to stay away from coilovers, due to the ride quality loss, however i haven't heard anything about lowering springs. I have H&R springs on my Metro and they greatly improved the ride, but that was a Geo...this is a Lexus. So my basic question is which way will give me the best ride quality? I don't want to slam the car, just get rid of some wheel gap and eventually get some 18s. I searched around and couldn't find much, Here are the two things i'm looking at: http://www.meganracingperformance.com/9000...-kit-p-630.html http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Tanabe-DF21...=item35a3eb37ce Thanks a bunch, Kyle

Here are a few pics of my Lexus. I've found just a few blemishes on it. I hope to get some tips soon and hopefully some Tanabe springs... So far i've claybard the front fenders, trunk, and the hood. I also used Meguiars NXT wax on the hood, trunk, and the fenders. It started raining before i could finish the car. The interior is in excellent shape, i forgot to take pictures of that however.

Ok, thanks for the links. I've been searching around the site over the weekend, but i was limited to what i could do because my account hadn't been approved yet. So what is the general consensus on the Tanabe springs? Thanks, Kyle

Hello everyone. My name is Kyle. As of Tomorrow morning I wil be the proud owner of a 1996 Ls400. I was looking for an extremely reliable DD, as well as a great car to take on trips, i had a friend recommend an LS, so here i am now, a proud owner. I don't have any good pics yet but here is the Autotrader add it is on. http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ct=p...;standard=false We went and testdrove the car Saturday. It is almost immaculent. The interior is perfect, and aside from a tiny dent by the power antenna the outside would be perfect also. The owners have all the service records for the car and it obviously has been very well taken care of. I will update this when i get some decent pictures of the car. It also has brand new 20% tint all around. My first plans for it will be to claybar and wax the entire car, then i will get some exhaust tips put on it. I don't plan on doing to much too it: Tanabe springs, tips, possibly wheels, and maybe a lip. The only thing i've found wrong with the car was that the lights on the radio buttons don't light up, the LCD does, but the backlight doesn't. Also, in case you are wondering about my user name, i also drive(not currently) a 92 Geo Metro that has(had) a custom turbo 3 banger, made close to 100whp and ran deep 15s, high 14s. It was the ultimate sleeper... Thanks again, Kyle
