I would'nt say it's elevated for us, but maybe for you guys since it was lowered when Kelly owned it. The 90 Civic LX struts/springs we put on it gives it a height that is pretty similar to my stock 89 HF height, but yeah, I'm sure it will be lowered in the future.

i don't think Brad cares much about how high the car sits. stock height is ok. its going to be a MPG car, not MPH or showcar. the stock suspenion was needed and easy to get, since someone on here bought the lowered stuff that was on it.

Since it's going to be used for fuel efficiency, he will most likely lower it to improve aerodynamics. Also, when he saw my car after I had installed the lowering springs, he was impressed and told me how much better my car looked. So, from his reaction, I think he's totally down with lowering now.

I just figured I'd give you trouble about it... It was fun meeting you guys on Easter, and not only that starting out Easter installing suspension. lol
