just kidding.... take it to a pro....
yeh, u shouldnt be fixing it anyways if all this is cos of the people who lowered it. make them, or perhaps someone better to fix it for u. at least if u go to another pro then u can also get a second opinion as to the fact that its not ur fault your car is too low as u were told
I still wanna know how you get that low! so using the stock EF civic shocks, is that on all four corners and did you have to swap over any other suspension parts? of course this is not to drive around on regularly but it would be nice to have a bit more travel and posibly get the suspension engineered and be able to go as low as i am now, but legally.
hey i dunno how i got this low either haha !! went to hannys today and he told me that the car was so low coz of the shocks =/ ... they are EF civic shocks.. stock.. theyre shorter and they bolt straight in.. no mods needed..
as for the extra travel.. the car is bottoming out on he slightest bump.. dunno if its from the shocks hittin bumps stops or springs so compressed...
heres some pics.. first 2 are front springs.. 3rd is rear..

shifty stuff man, where did they get the springs from? ordered? or what?
they kings? i know when i did mine a while ago on my crx i told them how much i wanted it lowered, two days later they arrived at the shop i got it done at since they made them for me..
thought came to mind they had them lying around and thought theyd get rid of it to u possibly?! :roll:
my bro got a 91 LS, recently got it done at pedders, did a real good job handles like a go cart.... lowered 3.5 back 3 front (pretty sure) with koni adjustable shocks... no bottoming out or rubbing or anything its beautiful since the shocks are stiff and keeps it from bouncing and hitting whatever...
they supposedly ordered the springs from K-mac.... they said 1 day....took over a week since "the machine broke down" and then "they were out of material"...
pedders dont go lower then 1.5inches though ??
1.5"? well my bro got his done much lower, anyone can do it just depends if they want to... maybe they are 2 law-abiding and dont wanna do illegal/defectable work...
eg when i got tints done a while ago on my crx, i wanted over the legal limit darkness, they agreed by with no receipt...
my bro did get a receipt for his work though..
pedders granville on james ruse drive did his..
Holy shizen those springs are mega compressed! :O
thought id let yas know that the problem at the back was the springs... the problem at the front was the shocks... interesting.. all fixed now.. =)
Dude.... keep it slammed LOL :p
i hate people consistantly telling me to drop it again, after the height it was at
well.... u saw the pics :D
one day i will chuck the springs back in, after i customise my driveway ...ahahhahahhahha
ahaha got very annoying
still fairly low though.. bout 3.2 inches.. perfect !
and the ride is 10 times better
