One Low Hatch.....

[Steven]

Stage #1 of the lowering project: Fronts are done for now, rears will be done tomorrow.

[Thrizzl3]

dammit! i was supposed to come back...i forgot lol. ill see it tomorrow when u get the rubbing issues taken care of

[Dave_The_BMXER]

Sorry I couldn't come by the shop today, looks good though. To me you are at my goal height (front slightly lower than the rear).

Your title is incorrect... I think you should change it to "Extremely Low Hatch"

no worries! Just call me when you wanna go by and I'll meet you there.
The front are still on Teins Basics, with little mods. But that will be swapped out today for the same ride height and something smoother. Even with the Teins, still rides nice. Need new shock mount bearings. That's why it couldn't have been done completely yesterday.

I assume that because he's on Coils, hes going to raise it for winter. Prove me wrong Steve

[Dave_The_BMXER]

He won't be on coils. He will be adjustable. Not bags either.

[stevenma188]

Hydraulics? *Confused*

[Dave_The_BMXER]

I'm a bit confused on how it all works too but I should have more info this weekend.

Dave and stevenma, it's very simple...it will be on original suspension except for the shock since i threw out my old stock shocks. Basically it will be my OEM springs and my koni FSD's I'll be running at that height. The ride comfort will still be there, almost close to stock. Very hard to explain, basically everything will be compressed tighter both shocks and springs. Normally when you jack your car up, your wheel with drop a bit before it gets off the ground. When I'm done with my car, when I am jacking up my car, the wheel will be coming off the ground with the car. Yes there is some machine work that needs to done with the shock. You have to machine the head of the shock and rethread it. Therefore the shock will be shorter, still making it very functional and safe. Obviously it is not that easy. There is much more to it, but I cannot let his secret out completely.....lol

With the height that I want to achieve, winter is out of the question. This will either have to be parked or raised.

OMG!!!!!..... thats so low!!! cant believe i have the same stock hatch as the one beside his. Stock car looks like a school bus in comparison

Ya something like that, it's modified by Droptec and is adjustable and apparently rides quite nice.

We didn't park side by side but I would say he is at least half an inch lower than me all around.

At least.
