Well im back! I had to sell my hatch due to a few issuse that needed to be atended but to my surprize the guy i sold my accord to gave it back to me :-D so now im going hard on geting everything i need to make it what i want. And really besides a hood, fender, and red seats i have everything else. BUT i need to get her low and im talkin tire to the fender but still drivable.
Now i have a set of ebay brand sleeves but i dont think they will go low enuf. But one thing i learned with old datsuns was swapin out strut inserts that are lower. Does anyone know if that can be done??? And anyone have some advise on a good setup that'll get me low?
Ive noticed their seems to be more slammed sedans and coupes then hatches.....i dont know why but doesnt seem like many slam the hatches.

Actuly found one pic on google of how i want my car to sit

Honestly on the cheap.

Guys around here cut the spring completely out and just ride on the struts.

It is what it is the car will be in the pull apart in less than a year depending how long the back window last and how many times they run it off the road.

Otherwise there is no low dollar way to do it and make the car function well.

Ok then on the higher cost note how and what do i need to do this???
I got a great job now so spendin some money wont be a problem now. Id rather do that then have no springs and a ride that will destroy my car.
