Here's a few pics of oil pan clearance and tension rod brackets.

Key is a bit slanted and resting on sway bar.

Bother brackets bent.

You're either a lunatic, or a genius. I think with the right wheels and ride height, you could be on to something. Or it could be a disaster. I still haven't decided! I do remember that wing from an ancient Genki game, and for some reason, anything that featured in old Genki games when I was younger appeals to me now.

You could bend parts at stock ride height.

We need more ms!3 and Matej pics.

Mine, dropped on Megans.

penco · 04-15-2010, 01:58 AM

I don't see how you all do it. I dropped my s13 on a strut/spring set up and I scrape my lip on every driveway or entrance to a store.

Quail · 04-15-2010, 03:12 AM

It's all about angle of attack

Nothing lines up on my car lol.

are those gullflames?

Persona · 04-15-2010, 10:42 AM

Dailying a lowered car is all about going the speed limit and paying attention to the road. Watching how cars in front of you look when going over transitions in the road etc. Help you know what to expect.

ddf2006 · 04-15-2010, 05:02 PM

this is right after i put the coils on
i think its before i adjusted them
GAB Sport coilovers
i need spacers for my back rims (horrable offset)
16" rims so i sit pretty low for how my coils r
i still scrape everything in sight

p.s. thats a lighter in the second pic

u go SUPER slanted....turn ur wheel UP the slope (ur car raises slightly while u turn to full lock. one thing i remember from vehicle dynamics class)

^ if this isn't enough...then u simply...LET SCRAPE.

!Zar! · 04-15-2010, 06:56 PM

Yeah, stop flying into dips and you will be fine.

penco · 04-16-2010, 01:27 AM

I also have the stock rims on the car so maybe when I put some 17's it will help a little bit. Thanks for the help.

Tearlessj · 04-16-2010, 01:48 AM

All these people treating this as the "How low can you go" thread need to post the entire car. Getting slammed on 15's is easy, now on 17"+ that takes some work.

ILoveMyRHS13 · 04-16-2010, 01:50 AM

Not really, it's just a matter of pulling collars or lowering the coilovers. I'm "low" on 15s but once I put my 17s on I plan on accounting for it and pulling collars.

Unknown007 · 04-16-2010, 02:03 AM

15's just got more tire then the 17's and 17's got less tire then 15's in my opinion.

I'm planning on being the same height once I get 18's so we'll see.

Doesn't matter if you pushing 15's or 18's if your low your low plain and simple.

Hating is a crime.

Or we can see it this way:

-17's+ equals wasting more time and money tucking them.
-15's- equals less time and money tucking them and you can go lower.
-If your gonna go 17's might as well go 18's, NO LIE!
