Looks nice mate!

The front looks low, but why is the back soo high?

What colour are the coilovers, might be able to distinguish them.

Another notable thing you have is the zoom engineering fuel cap. :mrgreen:

Eat Sleep JDM FTW!

Fuel lid looks like the one made by Zoom Engineering in Japan.

they sell for something like $300-$400 brand new.

is it possible that the front and rear shocks were installed the wrong way around? (assuming they are aftermarket)?

wow, 82rwkw for a 1.6 is pretty decent! mine got exactly that but its a stock 1.8.

you sure your car isnt modified, engine wise?

if your running coilovers and are having issues with your height, why dont you increase the height? Also as philz mentioned, check what colour the coilovers are, check for labeling etc.

Green will be tein's and are pretty common, considering yours is imported i dont see why it wouldnt be running them.

Nice car mate. I love the front lip, although you really should try to do something about the ride hight.

I must admit that I found it quite funny that your JDM sticker is on a rear panel never fitted to JDM cars. Anyway, nice car enjoy it!

And as for the suspension, they look to be orange in colour. I don't know much at all about suspension, so i might take it to pedders to see what they say

2.5 inch for a 1.6 is a little bit too big, but if it works, it works!

intresting, i dont know what coilovers are orange, did you also check how much room you have to play around via adjustment? there should be a thread looking thing with 2 plates together. if there is more thread below these plates then you can go lower (should be shitloads at the back).

try get a picture up, someone will know what they are ;)
