i agree with yuta on the cutting springs thing...i cut the springs on my q45 with 18x10 work rims and i love it..lol..sometimes i forget i need to get coilovers but the ride quality is not bad at all.

Yeah cutting springs is classic. It makes the car awesome and it isn't that bad, despite how stupid everyone thinks it is.
If you cant afford coilovers**

hahaha you have cut springs also tim. on a 240 dont cut em too much. we dont have much spring travel which means your struts will bottom out all the time.

you will have to use a spring compressor and remove the spring from the shock.
Use a hacksaw (slow as hell) or a rotary cutoff tool (fast) or something similar and cut about maybe 2-3 coils from the spring. Don't go too nuts otherwise you will kill the travel.

Or you can just ****ing cut the springs with everything still attached, thats more gangster. Check with the Bossier boys, they are poor and cuts springs (lawlz j/P, I think they have gaygans coilovers now)
