    Need some opinions quickly..

    Ok...
    Check out how low my car is now in my car domain link in the sig please

    did you check?
    ok.

    Now... the car was lowered when I bought it. I *THINK* the owner said 1.75 in the front and 1.25 in the back, but I really can't remember.

    So, I am about to buy some new shocks and thinking about new springs too.

    My questions are:
    How low does my car look?

    And

    If I do get springs, should I go with a 1.3"/1.3" F/R drop, or a 1.8/1.8? Is a 1.8 drop really low? I have 3" exhaust that hits on some speed bumps already..

    I know this is in the wrong forum, but I've been waiting for Mr. Strano to get back to me and he hasn't and now I'm running out of time.. need to get these parts ordered quickly.

    Thanks!

    it's pretty low....those wheels have to go though. get some 5-spoke wheels, it'll open everything up nicely.

      Thank you for the suggestion about my wheels, but those were also on the car when I bought it.

      The wheels I want are $489 a corner... so they have to wait for a while [img]smile.gif[/img]

      Right now I am more concerned with the suspension.. if a 1.8" drop will be too low. or if 1.3" will be higher than what I have now. I do not want my car any higher...

        go measure the gap in the fenderwell, and then look for the stock height. that'll give you your answer.

          Bats, why don't put you're car back to stock height? I had mine dropped for 6 months now I want to go back to stock cuz of the scraping, it sucks I scrape the bumper sometimes if I go to fast, and sometimes my header piping, even worse oil pan at times.

            I love my car being lowered, I have learned how to not scrap on just about every drive way I come across [img]smile.gif[/img]
            There are just some speedbumps that are way too tall for me to go over.
            Plus with how aggressive I drive sometimes having it lowered will be safer hehe better handling
