what......your insane...no offense dude but your priorities are all fucked up...if you want rice low then jsut taek out your springs adn ride the bump stops...
what coils do you have (please dont' say ghetto brands)
raise it up to some where liek a 1.5-1 inch drop and get soem shocks...so you dont' scrap and have a horribly handling car that is unsafe to drive (which yoru car is now with the sprigns flipped and that low with cheapo coils)
your stock shocks are probobly dead form you doing this raise it up if you want them to live another day

you guys ever hear that booty song.... it goes something like:
how low can you go
can you go down low
all the way to the floor
I like it low
haha... anyways Sleekef, I know the urge to dump it for sum pics... when I first had my Ground Control coilovers in 1999 I dumped it all the way, and then I jacked up the other side to transfer all the weight over and compress the springs.... I had the entire top part of the tire on my 17 inch rims tucked away
and now I don't have the pics no mo' but it was fun

I dont get it why people are acting like im some big ricer lowering it all the way 2 the ground and driving it i just wanted to snap some pics. Also I needed some type of coilovers or springs and the r1's were the price range I could afford. When I make more im going for GC's on koni red's!

Uh, they are probably the same ones that Pac Mall sell for $300+
Red or blue spring.......single clap locking ring or dual locking rings Sleekef?
