So when I bought my FD from the kid he told me it had greddy lowering springs and that he didnt even know greddy made springs until he got them.



I personally had never heard of it and seeing that the car sits pretty damn low for just springs and upgraded struts I figured he was lying and had the springs cut or heated or whatever.



Well today I hit mile 500 on the new motor so I brought it in my shop to change the oil out as reccommended by Ihor.



While it was up in the air i noticed some loose screws holding the plastic in behind the driver's rear wheel. So i went to tighten them down and found a tag on the springs, sure enough it said "trust" and then something about super racing something. With a part number and a bit saying FD on them.



So i tried searching online for them and have found nothing...



I'm looking for specs, reviews and hopefully pics of other people's cars with these springs on them to see if they all sit this low or something.



thanks,

kevin.

I had these springs about 8 years ago on my FD. I loved them. They rode great and were very low. Mine were all black or a dark gray if I remember correctly. Funny thing is that they only cost $100 a set. They stopped making them a while back, I've been trying to locate a set for some time now but never found another set for sale that were new. The funny thing is that I was at a friends house tonight with my FD and we were both talking about how much we liked the greddy springs since he had them too, then I get home and see the post!
