I get a rattle when I hit small bumps and stuff. I changed a broken rear strut mount and it still rattles? Any ideas?

[/quote]Yup it definately needs to go lower. If its not scrapeing constantly why you are driving then its not low enough bro.

sportlines = garbage.
spring rates are waaaaay too low for the amount of drop they give.

Yup I'm on tokicos. I need struts again so I'm def gonna change the springs.
I cut a bit off mine in the front for a better drop. Ride quality is the same. Possible trade?

I don't wanna dump anymore into a neon. I wanna get an s2000 and boost it, so stock height is fine.
