find a normal sport and measure the distance from arch to wheel centre, front and back, then compare to yours.

Or, post up some pics and someone on here will be able to tell you roughly how low it is compared to standard.

I just done an oil service and had to make myself a set of ramps to slowly ride up and raise the front of the car @6" off the ground. The spoiler is only 4.5" above ground level so I had to custom build 9" wide half inch thick chipboard planks starting 24" long then 21" then 18" etc to raise it level to some 6" sq lumps of wood and then I had enough room to remove the drain tray & get at the sump & oil filter. I was also able to give the underneath a good steam clean while I was at it.

I think I am gonna have to look for a small scissor jack as there's no way the factory jack will work with this suspension & MTech kit - any suggestions?

Cheers, Neil
