Lowering at HMS?????
Has anybody here lowered their cars at Harbor Motorsports? Any problems? What did it cost?
Their method of lowering is altering the stock link to any height desired. Labor takes about 30min-1hr.
I'm debating over the Renntech elm, adjustableairride links, washers, and HMS way..
All seem to do the same Thing, trick the sensors.

+1. They've been amazing about everything they've done for me.
Their shop is a little moret han an hour away from me, but considering HMS and Hyevon are in the same spot it's the only place I go. It's hit the point that they're the only guys that I am comfortable with working on my car.

Nice part about an ELM is when you make that dreaded trip to the dealer you can turn it off. Car returns completely to stock height. Dealer has no idea you have modified your suspension. With all the other otions you have mentioned there is NO easy way to do that. If you have NO warranty then maybe links or one of the lesser expensive adjustments is the way to go. BUt from a warranty perspective IMO the ELM is the only way to go.

i STFF'ed in the past and saw more negative feedbacks on links...
if u don't require huge drop (which requires u to have ELM), SDS loweriing is affordable and safe alternative IMO...
