one question? why would you want to lift the rear? that isn't gonna do anything but slow you down and mess up your takeoff. Sick

its just for looks, I am not that much into proformance where the little lift will upset me, I will still have enough power to have fun, its a street car so I just want the stace to look the way I want, Any other ways to make an aggressive stance are greatly appreciated. Let me know. Thanks

You should just get a pair of these then, I got a pair on my car, they're pretty fun, just pull into a gas station while you're out and you can raise it up... Check them out here

Did we just time warp back to 1977? because this is the second question about raising the back of a car in the same day. To answer the question. You WILL mess up the ride, handleing and wear out the suspension faster. Besides that it will look like a refuge from a trailer park.

Lifting the rear actually helps the weight transfer. It'll let it squat down under heavy acceleration and it'll also allow larger tires.
