You cant be lowered more then an inch from what I understand to pass a safety. Alot of shops dont seem to care though.

they don't really care... its probably illegal and not safe...
but to their standpoints... as long as the coilovers functions properly... they dun care if u're 1" or 3"... they pass you

i hope not..
but its okay my CRX will have a logbook to help it, and will be gone over with a fine tooth comb by the techs @ events and plus i'll get a bum safety JUST to make it less of a hassle.... but my car WILL be street legal.. it has to be for rally anyways!
