lower in front.....

[jakeb]

I have H&R sport springs and just got a set of type As. I am really happy with the way the back looks but I would like a little less fender gap in the front.

What do you suggest to lower the front some....

thanks

Coilovers

or it you are ambitious and can find some....

Drop hats

Cut a dead coil.

If the sports are progressive, then yes, cut a dead coil. Otherwise, a set of drop hats will work. Not sure who sells them anymore, though.

[deutschman]

what about taking the rubber pads out? im not sure how much gap this will get rid of but it might be enough.

what's a drop hat?

[Jamster]

what's a drop hat?

correct me if i'm wrong..

Drop hat = a shock top hat that either is thinner or allows the spring to sit closer to the body shock tower...

is anybody running 16X9 borbet type a's on h&r race springs? if so, can you post a picture?

[PaladinReed]

does it have stock FSM? Wouldnt a smaller profile camber plate like from Ground Control lower it a bit more? like 1/2 to 1 inch? lol its as much a question for myself as the OP

lulz

How does this affect the ride? a lot harsher?

[gearheadE30]

Ride is only harsher if it puts you on the bump stops...

And plates move the entire assembly upwards slightly, so that should help too.
