custom i searched all the way back to 2002 in the faq and regular suspension forum. im looking for springs NOT coilovers..i already got them and sposedly i found if you dont put them on upside down like pretty much everyone does...then they will lower and give a pretty good ride. the coilovers are sh** just like every other coilover out there...but the springs i found were precision made or something good like that...i just wanna find pics on them now.

Cutting springs is bad mojo.. One of the problems with cutting them is that its very difficult to cut the second spring exactly the same place you did the first one. So right there you have a difference between the two.. and if you cut all 4.. you have a difference at all 4 corners. A second problem is that you weaken the spring as well.. you are compromising the original design and strength specification of the spring. In short.. its a bad idea. I hope your cheapness only kills you and not someone else if your hack job causes you to lose control of your car at some point.

I have to agree with these guys. It is dangerous to cut springs, even "not very much at all". I strongly urge you to purchase a set of lowering springs. They don't cost that much to purchase and install. Unless for some sick reason you think a person's life, including your own is worth less than the cost of a set of springs.
Just get a set and save a life.
