I am finishing my plans on the drop. This is how it should sit.
I've been tooo busy lately to screw around with the SC - having started back on my BMW. I want to finish it before I decide to stop doing anything to it

 

oh yeah...that is sweet..man my car is ugly but when I dropped it gets more compliments. What set up are you going with?

 

get another inch and a half and it will look really sweet IMO

 

huh?

 

Nice. To be honest it looks a bit high at the front with the current setup. What suspension will you be going with to drop it lower?

 

Since I don't drive the car much I don't really care what I use. Just some springs and some new shocks, which it needs no matter what.

I've started the car 5 times this year. Top grade is not priority. Something that won't break on me. Some reasonably well known brand.

 

Yeah that's nice looking. I love the later series SC's like that type of drop.

 

Just stock. I had the wheel turned in a little bit towards the camera and didn't notice until after the shot was taken. Anytime the wheels turn it cranks the suspension up a little as it rotates the tires. (like coming down off a jack, it's always bound up a little). It sits a little bit (not much mind you) lower when the wheels are straight.

Stock height with 40 series tires is always going to be a bit "gappy".

 

That explains things. I though you had eibachs or something. And I know exactly what you mean by 'gappy'... Im on stock suspension with 18's and 40 series tires as well. I keep telling myself I'll order coilovers next week...

 

I can't remember if stock is 60 or 65 series, but even on my stock wheels I have 55's and compare them to.........

 

........40 series on my Evo's.........

 

Wow that's a solid 1.5 inch difference. I figured it was around an inch, but not much more.

 

thats a nice drop any lower and the car wont have that perfect stance anymore if you want that ride height look at the tanabe nf210 thats what im running not too low not too high they lower the car about a inch in front and 3/4 in the rear and the ride is a littke more stiffer than factory

 

Im telling ya man, Go with tein basics, only cost me like 760$ SHIPPED!!


BEST car mod i have ever done. WAY better then just a spring and shock upgrade, Fully adjustable on all four points!


up to 8 inchs of play (-4,-3,-2,-1,0,+1,+2,+3,+4 )
seriously amazing

 

How's this? And yes... I know my paint skills are beyond most. Looks good, O.L.T.
