finally dropped her ..

[blunttech]

just pull the rear spring pads. it needs to come down in back a touch. looks good though

i love the rake.
the rear drops about half an inch or so when the car is in gear.

the front is too low, but still tolerable. i have taken the car to school and other places already. i just gotta go slow and angle as much as possible.

so far it's just the lip i've hit, haven't felt an exhaust or pan hit yet, thankfully.
i'm glad i don't get any bounce with the new shocks.

Thats good that your taking its slow over common obstacles lol. You should see my friends 240. Its so low he can drag soda cans along the road.

Sorry your not low until you can rip road reflectors off the road...

[golde30]

you couldnt safely drive an m42 car or an m/s50 car that low in the front without some oil pan carnage. i would get a skidplate from EJnight asap.

Isn't the m42 pan even lower than the m20?

[euroshark]

i know i could easily do that but see i really don't want metal to metal noise on a daily driven car..

[T Verdier]

I'm gonna be driving on egg shells for a while until i get a skid plate.

Thats what he is saying.

i got 60/50 cause of the early arches. I hope the back looks fine without removing spring pads.

[T3rd Ferguson]

is your car an automatic?

[aSpecD_]

i got 60/50 cause of the early arches. I hope the back looks fine without removing spring pads.

looking forward in seeing LowTecs on your early.
i got 60/35 cause of the lower arches. hehe.

good choice. I've pretty much given up on parking in my garage, it has 4 angle changes but we will see lol.

[gearheadE30]

Yeah, the M42 pan is insanely low. I'm on ground controls and far from slammed and I still have an issue with hitting things.

Car looks nice, but a bit much rake and the front rates seem really soft IMO.

[kenika65]

Spring pads? oh just saw that you do... I love the stance wouldn't change it at all.

Just load up the rear with some subs and it will sit lower.

Its been a while since I have seen a perfect stance...
