i looked at the title and thought. here we go again, someone whos just lowered a crappy rust 6n the usual. then i seen this :) it looks sick :) really like it just the way it is :)

My title worked :)

Sorry this is not static guys, I have alot of respect for Scott being this low static, i have driven mine as it is on the pic and it bottoms out on EVERYTHING.

Also sorry I can't take any credit, Luke Massy and the guys at Plush Automotive hooked me up, They did a fantastic job.

Thanks for all the comments :)

It will come down a few mm, on these pics the tyres sat on the arch at the back, and the bumper mount up front.

resting on the deck or what? thats mad

cheers!

Yea, inside the wheel arch, there's a section from the wing, it's just resting on my tyre, so once that's slightly chopped the front will come down prob 5-10mm.

The front stops there with about 10psi left in the bags..

Ahh fair dude..

Would be ace if you could get the splitter on the floor ;) Have to say does look spot on!

You got any pics of the install?

is it dead bouncy on bags?

I know, i want the splitter on the floor haha. Think i'd have to be on 13s.

This is on my 14" steels...

As for ride, it depends how low you go, Basically rides standard if you put it at standard height, If you drop it, it's still firm because the dampers are near the limit, but it's not bouncy. If you air out completely, it's like driving with no suspension. And cat's eyes get pulled up... lol

Need the splitter on the floor for sure! lol.

13" banded steelies i think are a must in that case.

check out this pic,

The cat is on the floor, as someone already pointed out lol. Also the driver's side is higher because the drive shaft is resting under the sump, holding it up...

So, the engine would have to be raised, and the passenger side of the chassis notched.

Buuuuuut.... It's not easy to raise the engine because the gearbox is mounted from the side...

So my only way down from here is decat and smaller wheels for now :lol:

BUTTONS yay! on the left, front Left/Right Up/Down. On the right Rear Left/Right Up/Down

Then 3 buttons, Air out, middle is Pre set ride height and third is to go up.

I play in a Pro band and work full time so i needed as much boot space as possible for all my gear.
