Yea you will, because all of the aftermarket knuckles that I know of move the mounting point of the coilover to the rear knuckle which lowers the car usually around 25mm or so without adjustment to the coilover at all. So if you want knuckles and your car to stay at that height your going to have to get longer struts for your coilovers because your going to run out of adjustment to keep the car raised up.

Car looks good, I'm sure you can focus on actual driving then hitting things more.
I sometimes scratch my head thinking how in the world I drove my S14 3" lower then it is right now for 4 years with out destroying my front bumper.

From this height...



To this height..
Wow....I really like your car. Your previous ride height wasn't even that bad compared to some of the ground scrapers I've seen. But it sits much better now..

I have pretty similar camber setup only in the front though. Running -5.5 in the front and -.08 in the rear. I also have 48mm spacers in the front that add that touch of wideness But my car itself is a pos so not much to brag about.
Lip doesnt actually look bad, just seems to fit weird imo.

Any more photos of the car?

I never really took a lot of pics. I never got my front alignment but i was closer to -8 maybe. I had to put 20mm spacer so i can clear my brembo. My new wheels will have the same offset with out spacer

Wanted to run with out plate but cops where giving me hard time. So i made small bracket to hold the plate + more air flow into the intercooler.

I wanted to run flip and go plate but way to much work and piping is in the way.

I actually gave it to a body shop. It was a proper job. On the inside there was metal mesh and fiberglass. My guess is that they cut it out, pushed it inside and filled it. Bumper belongs to a fellow zlivia member. I'll wait for him to post pictures of the bumper.

Also got another clean navan for sale if anyone is interested. I got sale ad up but i need to get pictures for it. Its mint.
