Well, my Canuck Motorsports lowering springs arrived today. Installation is tomorrow or Friday! Lowering is 1.75" front / 1.75" rear. This should take care of the wheel gap.:)

JonCo 03-01-2006, 08:43 PM Wow, thats gonna be some drop. Plan on getting some low profile tires? And here I was worried about buying the Eibach pro kit and only lowering it 1.2". Pics, please. Kman 03-01-2006, 09:28 PM Here are 2 'Before' shots I took 2 months ago. Kman 03-02-2006, 09:59 AM I had the springs installed today. I took some pics, form Before and After. It's snowing in NYC today, so two of the pics show the White Stuff. sunrunner_pei 03-02-2006, 12:35 PM Wow. Looks great! Kman 03-02-2006, 01:12 PM Wow. Looks great!Thanks. I will get some better overall shots when the weather clears. The car sits low now. :) branderson 03-02-2006, 03:10 PM Wow, the wheel gap totally disapeared. Looks great. Can't wait to see shots of the whole car. bigbengt67 03-02-2006, 04:56 PM Looks great! JonCo 03-02-2006, 07:54 PM Amazing. Yeah get some full body shots. Hmm, I may be inclined to get an intake and then drop my car(with the Eibach kit) before doing a dual exhaust setup. Looks nice otcpharm 03-02-2006, 08:03 PM Nice new ride height. Looks 10X better. Keep us updated on handling improvements and clearance issues. Kman 03-02-2006, 09:20 PM This the best full shot I can get for now. http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e95/KeithGTP/lowgtp.jpg JonCo 03-06-2006, 08:09 PM How does it ride now? Kman 03-06-2006, 09:06 PM How does it ride now? The car has a firm, but controlled ride. The car's cornering ability is improved and it handles the bumps well. No harshness at all. JonCo 03-07-2006, 01:29 PM Hmm, so how much did you spend on the springs? Im thinking of lowering my GT within the next 3 weeks. Mainly waiting for another paycheck so Im not left dirt poor. Hah, but yeah. Im thinking about getting the Eibach kit. Its only lowering 1.2"(F&B) though. The hefty 230$ is quite steep(+ install) Kman 03-07-2006, 08:59 PM Hmm, so how much did you spend on the springs? Im thinking of lowering my GT within the next 3 weeks.

The hefty 230$ is quite steep(+ install) The springs were $204 USD. JonCo 03-10-2006, 08:20 AM Not bad. But the 1.75 drop is what scares me. I didn't want to mess with a drop greater then 1.5". The one thing I do hate though is that no site can keep how big of a drop the springs do. Some say the Eibach kit does 1.2 while others say 1.3. Wierd... I saw some H&R lowering springs I kinda liked. 1.5" front 1.3" in the back. Kman 03-10-2006, 09:03 AM Not bad. But the 1.75 drop is what scares me.

A 1.75" drop may be a bit too much for most people. ;) | ||
