Just put in S Techs, Drop doesn't seem like the right amount
Hey guys,
I've been lurking here for awhile, but today's my first post. I have a '02 240, haven't done anything too crazy to the car yet. But hey, slowly but surely.
So today I had brand new S-Techs installed
Was really happy until the car was on the ground again because it looked almost the same as the oem springs!(excuse the brake dust; was busy with work and school)
After driving about 30min, the car now does seem abit lower, but its nothing like the S Tech pics shown on Teins site and what not:

It seems wierd to me because I know someone who did S Techs on his 4th gen eclipse and the drop was immediately noticeable.
Do springs really drop like 1.5in after settling?
From what I read S-Techs are supposed to be a 2.5, 2.6inch drop in the front.
So what gives?
