i fitted some RS*R springs but had to take them off as it was undrivable in London with all the speed bumps kept whacking the exhaust

Get some adjustable coil-overs, you can set it as low as you fancy,



(or as your wallet can handle replacing the tyres due to camber issues. !!!!)

If you want to have a legnum with a really low rear end, try fitting Galant lowering springs. The rear tyres will disappear into the arches :)

I have D2´s on mine and I cant eaven get an ordinary lift under my car. I have to roll it up on some wood first. I think the lowest part of my car (transmissionbox) is about 4cm from the ground.

I think it looks awesome but it´s not that apprichiated(spelling?) when stopping and rolling over speedbumps at 1 km/h. I´ve set the D2´s really hard so that the car doesnt take any damage underneath.

when i first bought mine it had lowering springs on and i could only just fit my clenched fist on its side under the front to back cross member.

which was too low for me, speed pump in manchester.

i have standard springs on now, but not for much longer as i have some Tein HA's.

i'm just wondering if anyone else has issues with aftermarket dump valves, the vaccum pipe rips off on mine occassionally when going oer bad speed bumps at standard height , so im thinking lowering is gonna make it worse. It could always be because the standard shocks are shot and i suppose it could be diving more than usual.
