Re: MY G lowered!

Looks good, what kind of springs did you use? How much was the drop? How is the ride now? A lot stiffer?

Re: MY G lowered!

ill have to do that soon. its just i live in vancouver and who knows when itll rain lol. but when i do get the pics ill post them

oh, the springs are kg/mm. i THINK they told me its a 1.2 inch drop in the front and 1 inch drop in the bak. not too sure...as for the ride, the springs definitely feel stiffer. i feel like i have way more control around turns but then when the streets are bad, its pretty bumpy.. overall im happy wit them

Re: MY G lowered!

lol i wasnt quite sure. the place i got them from asked me how low i wanted, and a 1 inch drop didnt sound low enuf for me so ya i guess they should be around a 1.5 inch drop.

they are KG/MM DR Racing Springs, and so far only the exhaust system from below has bottomed out

Re: MY G lowered!

the install took 2 hours..and yep they were installed and thats it. if u want to be able to adjust the height of ur ride, ur gonna have to go coilovers which is way more expensive

Re: MY G lowered!

Looks good! How much did it cost you total (springs and installation) and are the springs all you did?
