first step is to read the faqs at the top. its very helpful to anyone that is new to suspensions. struts are needed when upgrading to any springs or coilovers

you need to match your struts and your springs. ive never lowered a car before, but just from reading up on here, ive come across that. the others will give you more info. or search for products that others have used before



Injection is nice but id rather be BLOWN!

yea and make sure you match the right struts to the right spring or coilovers. some struts are only good for 1.5" and some are good for no drop. make sure you know how low your going and what your struts are capable of

WHile Warrenty is void past the 1.5 drop on AGX's, I have seen a many take Sportlines with no issues.
