I wanna go LOW. but theres a problem.

I drive an 88' mustang. 2.3 four cylinder. after some thought I decided to keep it and build it the way I wanted, in doing such, I plan to take much of my inspiration from the jdm/tuner scene. I think it would turn out well if done right. anywho. my question is, what is the best possible way to achieve a low aggressive stance with a mustang of this generation?

go to a mustang forum to figure out the low part. from there, all you need is measuring and an understanding of backspacing/offset/tire sizing. shouldn't be too terribly difficult.

but you should SVO swap that turd.
welcome to the forum.

Figure out a way to slam a solid axle car and not have bind, as well as not drag that 2.3 pan off the ground and you'll be set.

Truthfully those are 2 huge issues

1. The 2.3 oil pan is like a dagger into the ground
2. The rear setup needs to be linked/re engineered to go low



Chekc out airbag setups.

Sig worthy. 4cyl Foxbody, asking for advice on a S/Z-chassis forum... on how to lower the car no less.

I'm serious though... how do people like this find their way to Zilvia? Is this a fucktard magnet? This place would be loads better if I was a mod on this forum too. I straightup delete threads like these... This server is HORRIBLY slow tonight, and it's because there are too many people on here taking up more space with STUPID SHIT. This belongs on a mustang forum PERIOD. Not here. I don't care that you want to reenact some Tokyo Drift wanna be bullshit with your turdbox, go elsewhere. This is a 240sx/Z forum, not a hybrid-glued-together monstrosity of vehicles of all makes and models trying to be "different". Go get your suspension shit in line. Then when you want to swap in your madtyteJDMyo motor, come back, AND BROWSE AND SEARCH the forums for your answers. Don't continue to create countless threads of wasted space of more PCP induced garbage of ideas.

No, I'm sick of stupid fucks like yourself that come on a car-specific forum without the specific car. Go troll another forum. Zilvia is slow enough, and far too infected with your kind already.

first: thanks for your civil response.

I joined for my love of the s-chassis. simple enough. It doesnt mean that every 17 year old kid that joins the forum is going to have an s-chassis car.

Why join a forum SPECIFIC for Nissans if you own a Ford?

How the fuck would we know how to lower that thing? Or anything about that car as far as that goes.

i dont have a problem with you here, as i joined before i had an S chassis, i would just save all the car specific questions for your mustang forums.
just doing a quick search i found Mustang Forums at StangNet

hang out all you want, just save mustang stuff for mustang people or prepare to be flamed.

Everyone else on this thread said the same fucking thing, just not as nicely. You respect the nice folk, ay? That won't get you too far on Zilvia.
