I like many others, want to lower my UP!, so I invited y'all that have already done it, to post up a picture or two of your car with a full spec. Hopefully we can build up a mini database of options

If you can please include...

Suspension type (including brand and model)
Wheels sizes (including offset)
Tyre sizes
Adapter/spacer sizes

...and maybe a brief review? that'd be great.

If for no other reason than to show off your pride and joy, get posting

Without the entire adjuster, just swapped the rear springs over.

Very nice, how do youfind the Weitec coilovers?

Very nice, how do youfind the Weitec coilovers?

If you don't mind my feedback as well, I find they ride very nicely. If anything they are TOO soft, on several occasions I've contacted wheel rim with arch when hitting small bumps whilst turning.

 

[Davec86]

Agreed, a little soft perhaps, comfortable ride mostly though.
Also, I wish they'd go just a little lower at the back, that's the biggest upset for me.

 

[Rock up! GM]

Im really loving all these slammed up!s, would love to do this on mine but it wouldnt be practical, just curious to see if anyone has pics with a simple 40mm spring job?

 

[SylleGS]

Sping only goes Down to 35mm.
Mine is Down 35 by H&R springs. but it will be mounted with fk coilover this spring.
This is mine with 35mm.

 

[Rock up! GM]

Man that looks awesome! I'm still a sucker for a little sticker bombing!, got a roll of carbon fibre knocking about, was thinking of doing my grille like that.

That 35mm drop looks great to me, is it nice to live with every day?...

Do think the 5 doors look ace lowered!...

Don't mind at all

Without going really hard your in danger of doing that anyway aren't you, with wheel size/tyre/offset you're running?
