Re: Suspension Drop How much?
had no experience with air bags. wouldn't of thought it would handle as good and it complecates things. ive already got the 60mm kit on and some 80 or 100mm springs wont be too much.

ive 60mm lowering all round and its too high. i scrape my midbox on only servere speed humps, but thats the bad powerflow design. im going to get some 80mm springs on my 60mm shocks but that still wont be low enough, does anyone do 100mm springs?? but if your lowering your car get shocks too.

i would of thought maybe a cage would of not been allowed because its built into the body of the car. I would of thought you'd of been able to have engine mods though.
