front end springs

[JSeymour]

My nova has a 80mm drop on the rear and 60mm on the front but the front doesnt look that low(looks like a 40 drop). it handles realy good so was just wondering if it will handle as well when the front is lowered.
may seem abit of a stupid Q but someone told me that it will never hadle as well if the front is lower/back is higher....

also thought this was more of a general Q then a mechanical one.

Theoretically... the front end is heavier, so having that lower than the rear lowers the centre of gravity and ought to make the car handle better. In practice you'd find all the weight is on the front wheels; the back will just skip about and you might get a bit of oversteer if you're lucky ;)

don't coilsprings make custom front end 80mm springs?

Looks quite low to me, custom springs next. Or chop the coils if you dare ( I wouldnt).

Some kits put the rear a touch higher than the front as you get a bit of nose lift under acceleration. This kinda pulls the rear level anyway, its a question of static looks or handling on the move.
