I have H&R springs on my 2001. I believe their website states that it lowers it 1 inch both front and rears. They are not adjustable. Here's a pic of mine.

Here's what the stance looks like with the RoW M030. It's supposed to be about an inch lower in front and 1/2 inch in the rear compared to the US cars.

@ JAAY,

What side skirts are those?

Mine is lowered with Elibachs, I think I got a 2 inch drop.
My 99 is on 19 inch rims.

More pictures can be found in the links in my signature.

i love the look of a lowered car but i've often wondered the q ... 'what/how am i defeating my car's ability to handle a dip, speed bump, pot hole ...etc.'

after you guys got bak from the drop shop, did you pull into your driveway different? i would imagine that your acceleration or some sort of speed variable would improve as the air turbulence/resistance would be reduced going under the car.

thanks!

I would go with H&R springs (roughly 2.5" drop) and Bilstien HD struts. Thats what I have.
