Not low enough till it scrapes

[wrigleys]

ok I've now lowered my car 60mm on shorter shocks and it's sitting lower than a nova with just 60mm springs.
The front wheels are touching the wheel arches, which is cool but it's still not low enough at the back, I had 3 people in the back the other day and it looked so sweet :D

Is there anywhere I can get 80 - 100mm springs? or can I maybe make my own from standard springs?

or jus chop a coil off, bit dodgy tho.

if its a bit dodgy dont sugest it then! Look on ebay, allways stuff like that going for sale.

you cant do this on the read as the last coil at each end of the spring is much thinner to stay in position!

Did the rear springs on my old Nova T40 (-90mm from -60mm springs).

would it make the car handle any better if you did this or would it be purely for looks. with it being lower at the back and that?

[Stanton]

didnt think u cud cut the rears on a nova cos they taper at each end?

looks
any nova lowered past about 40mm and you starting to get into trouble except on super smooth road/track

yeh it's pruely for looks, just got a price from www.coilsprings.com ?70 for 80mm-100mm depending on what I want, I've gotta get short shocks first! :twisted:

i'd say go for air bags if your dropping it that low you'd have to take different roads without speed bumps
