Yeah already done it thanks mate

If this thread is still alive, ozzy mate, can you just get the entire wire harness from a wreckers and not just the plugs to avoid a whole lot of hassle?

Depending on tyres mate. My wheels have the same offset, but mine are 18 x 8 I have rolled my rears a little bit and tucked the fender lining at the front because both were rubbing. I'm on coilovers...

Ahh camber, right. Yeah nah I have a rear camber kit lined up if it's needed

Fred what do you mean when you say hella flush? My wheels don't poke out past my guards if that's what you're talking about

Haha yeah thanks for the advice ;) I'll measure up once they're done and we'll see

Yeah I hear too many stories of cops handing out defects just because. Even though the car is legal. It should be way above the legal limit when I'm done atleast

Hey all,
This is how my cl9 looks now.
28102
It is currently lowered about 50mm all round on H&R sport spring and shock combo. Im picking up a set of coilovers tonight from a fella off ozhonda....

I run 18x8 +38 on 225/40 tyres dropped about 2 inches on shocks and springs. I had to roll the rears a bit but the fronts were fine. I would assume that with wider wheels and lower offset than mine...

Hi lusk. I think it would be quite a struggle to those to fit. I had to roll my guards a bit with 18 x 8 +38 wheels. Those wheels will stick out a fair bit more than mine so you'll almost certainly...

Hahah thanks mate that's all I was after

Yeah the rear camber kit is next on my list. As for the alignment the springs and shocks are second hand so they should already be settled. I assume the right idea is that it's safe enough for me to...

So I plan on getting a new spring/shock combo for my cl9. I'm sure I'm capable of installing it myself and i want to give it a crack because why not? Just wondering if after I have installed the new...

What is this about lowered perches? Do these shocks come with lowered perches or is it more a matter of chopping the perches and moving them?

I'll be aware but in terms of cost for what I want that is more or less my only option. I only want the lowering for looks and i dont plan on tracking my car. The mca suspension looks good sure but...

Thanks for your answers. being an American store and all its just going to be easier to get coilovers and almost the same price. Looks like I'm back to sitting back and waiting for some used ones to...

The ground control ones look really good. Do you think that a set if those with a softer more street spring rate would work on stock shocks and not wear them out like lowered springs would?

Yeah I read around that they can be a but stiff and have alot of bounce to them. But maybe the ones with the eibach springs would perform better.

So doing some searching on ebay and stuff and came across these:
...

Yeah I saw that yesterday, if you check the last page of replies you'll notice that they were recently sold :/ Bit of a bummer. Maybe I'll just keep an eye out for some second hand ones

Oh look another cl9 lowering thread ;)

So I've had my 2005 euro lux for a few months now and I am in the mood for making it look more personalised. I have done a crap load of reading around the...
