not low enuf.lol.
i want like... rear wheels under the arcs.
and front wheels just before under the arcs.
yeh i think i might get coilovers if i cant find springs that sit low enuf.
but if i do. then the coilovers can wait

[minircc]

i had super low kings on my DC2 with koni yellows.
don't think i have any pics though.. no digital cameras back then.. lol

car had around 7-8mm ground clearance after it settled.
personally i wouldn't go any lower that than. it was already very hard to drive and cat was getting a beating.

the back looked lower than that of the pics above, but wasn't too far under the guards.

thats wot i want. bti want that look wih 15's and 16's

[schuebyTeG]

yeah, they are big 18s under geeang's guards. It seems King spring wont get you as low are you want...

i know Skunk2 Springs are abit lower

[GIPONU]

so if i change the springs.
and the shocks. will that make my car lower?

[squish85]

at that height u might wanna consider Coilovers... very dangerous to drive if there is not enough free play in the suspension.. get something with a shorter shock body to allow more travel and stability..

[NSPYRE]

if u wanna slam it, just get coil sleeves. cost around the same as kings. brands to look for are ground control or omni power

[Sm0ked]

its not that dangerous driving with springs smaller than theyre supposed to be.
i know because ive done it :p

i had a 5 litre VN commodore wagon with super low kings in the front, and cut springs in the rear. (i soon upgraded the rear springs to super low kings also but it raised it an inch when i did)
because of the progressive rate of the spring, you cut off the softer, less tightly wound part, so that when you put it back in, its actually a much stiffer spring, with the softer part removed.

even the superlow kings could have had a ring cut off them to be lower, and even without cutting a ring off you could jack the car up at the back and pull them out by hand because theyre not coilovers the coil and shocks are seperate.
i had it like this for 2 years and after going over who knows how many large bumps in 2 years time they never even looked like falling out.

edit: pretty sure u can buy shorter shocks to go with smaller springs, i had them in the VN but you could still pull the springs out

you could easily buy the springs you want and cut a ring off the less tightly wound part, but many people have done this and failed hard. i wouldnt recommend it im just saying that it can be done and sometimes with successful results.

also, if you got the specs on the super lows, and the just 'lows', maybe cutting a ring off the super lows would be too much, but cutting a ring off the lows might make them slightly lower than super lows but not too low. i dont know exactly, its also illegal,
just sharing ideas..

[GIPONU]

so no one here has pics of ultra low with stock shocks? lols.

lols going turbo aye.nice.got money to afford petrol?lmao
i aint gonna go turbo/v8 till my lil bro gets his greens. which is april next year.
The holes i went to supercheap auto and on the rotating stands where they keep all the screws, i found gromets to plug in. but dont try taking the gromets off after they are in. so they just tear.
Yeh i found the springs. its "Jumboz". thanks

How'd you go with this, ever get the Ultra Low springs?

I'm about to get some springs to lower mine, they say super low will bring it down about 50-60mm and ultra will bring it down 60-70mm, I'd prefer the lower ones but would like to see how it'll look on the stock blades at that height!?

[GIPONU]

sorry mate.
i decided to go with the coilovers.lols
thinking form and function from the states.

how well do you fair around sydney roads with this height?

[LowCoupe]

I ordered my ultra low springs yesterday, so we'll see how it sits on the stock 15s in a few weeks!

[VTECMACHINE]

King springs are sick!

[geeang]

It was actually 100% fine at that height, I never had any problems with speed humps or anything, just took them slowly at an angle and was all good.

But I changed from that setup to coilovers + 16" wheels about 1 year now.

[LowCoupe]

King springs are sick!

They are more than fine for a daily driver if you just want it to sit a bit lower.

[xtan]

I run low king springs on stock rims with apexi adjustable shocks/damper settings.

[sammy342]

cut the springs about 3/4 and throw the bigger piece in the bin or better et just take out the springs lmao (sarcasm) 4 ppl that might just think i am serious hahaha :P

[LowCoupe]

For those that might care how an Integra does actually look on ultra low springs, I lowered mine last night, and the ride is surprisingly good, not alot of change from stock height in my opinion. No scrubbing or rubbing anywhere, but I would like the rears reset about 10-15mm lower at some point, but I'll see if they settle a bit first.
