I think Ground Control requires you to cut the lower stock spring seat on some cars, which in my opinion makes it more "Mickey Mouse" than "Properly Engineered".

There should be no cutting or grinding if you move up to a full coilover suspension such as Tein or JIC or Zeal.

If you go Ground Control, there might be cutting (again, I don't know if it's true because I've never had GC's on a 240SX myself) but nevertheless it's still more of an "addon" then a real coilover system.

If you go Ebay or NOPI or R1 or any other sub-$150 "performance coilover system" then cut your head off and grind it.
