When I first bought the car I had no idea how difficult and expensive it was to get parts for this car. Thanks to phillygs3 and sean @ luxury bippu style.

looks good but man does it need to go lower

Yeah i know it definitely needs to go lower just got springs for the time being while I save for airbags. Hopefully by mid spring.

Great start, i love this chassis, you never get to see it that often.. A Drop on those wheels, you'd be sitting pretty. Keep the Pics/updates Flowing!!

Thanks bro, I appreciate it. Everyone is telling me to cut the springs but I'm just going to wait it out for the time being till I get bags. I prefer ride comfort over looks.

Car is hella clean June, Cant wait to see it with the air susspension. Just cut the damn springs already LOL

thanks Rob, i appreciate it bro.

I would love to cut the fronts to get them even with the rear, I just don't want it to ride like crap. I just need an inch more off the front and I'm good.

I had my Tein's over 5 years, I cut them 2 years ago and it rides no different than before.  Just cut 'em ;)  Nice ride, love that body.

Maybe I'll reconsider? Hmmm. Front springs are literally 5 spaced out coils. Probably would cut half coils at a time

i wouldn't cut a spring personally but if you are going to make sure they are linear rate and not progressive.
 
love those beils.

They looks great on your car.  I'm glad you got them.
 
Cut the springs!  :runcoold:

Getting mixed responses on cutting the springs. My main concern is. Will it still ride nice or bounce like a Honda?

just realized there was a pic in the thread. you could cut the dead coil for sure. only side effect will be less damper travel.

You could cut your stocks first and see how it rides then either cut the new ones or just leave the cut old ones in.

Sounds like a plan. Thanks Sam

hmmm where can I hookup on some springs?

Shaolin, so long as your spring rate is high, you can cut one coil out and even out front and back. Please refer to my build thread for pics of how my car sat after i cut the spring.

The only downside to this is that  depending on the way the springs are made, once the bottom coil is cut, you will have to spot weld a small plate to retain the spring on the bottom perch of the spindle to stop it from spinning or coming dislodged. Go for it! 

otherwise, your car looks great with the beils..would def like to see it lower

your gettin there. 
personaly I dont like cut springs. ride is shitty.

thanks alot bro. We will see what happens.

Any full view of side profile of the car with the wheels and lowered? What offset is the rear wheels?

Get new pics shortly

i wonder who bought these beils

nice.. I need to drop mine bad...

Thanks

Man the y34's are multiplying. I wonder if they are like mogwai, I wonder if someone got them wet?

I hope to have a nice surprise on mine in the next month.

slammmmitttt

Nice rims tho ..what are the off sets ??

Cutting the fronts today! Let's see what happens.

Thatz what im talking about lol goin low low low :dance:

Can't wait to see it lowered.  Those wheels are nice

Cut a coil off the front. Dropped it 3/4 of an inch. Pics will be up shortly. No more 2 finger gap in the front.

Oh nice!  How is the ride?  Were you able to cut them right on the car?

I am thinking of cutting my front JP springs on my F50 as well because of the fender gap in the front.

Had to take it all apart all over again. I hate ball joints!

ahhh darn.  Fronts are a pain!  ok thx
