Car Suspension Law - What Spring/shock combo is Legal then?

[EK1.6LCIV]

Vinny told me his koni yellow's he had were the best sussy set up he's had.

That is just perfect then.

Ok,so travel wise they are fine,they travel at least 1/3 of the distance between the bump stops.

How about the height though? Can you get a ticket/defect for being too low?

lol, not a chance, my lowest point at present like most 96-00 Civic's is the cat and I still have over 130 space there, which is good as anymore my lip will scrape leaving work and most local businesses lol

its dropped it at best 50mm from stock on the Koni springs

GOTCHA!

So to be legal the suspension must travel 1/3 of the distance between the bump stops and not be under 100mm off the ground!

That's it.Phew!

I should have just rang the RTA AGES ago LOL

Thanks a lot mate,Koni Yellow's it is then!

How much would I be looking at paying?

1st post updated!

prob over $1100 with shocks and springs, could have changed slightly

Tein coilovers, supplied from Fulcrum, are ADR approved if you get the aus spec ones. so you get coilovers + legalities.

Best choice if you want to be by the book IMO.

Brett just incase, there are koni reds and lowering springs in sydney for 500 big ones.
Have a look in the for sale section.

As jason stated, fulcrum =adr approved = legal

Thanks Champion!

It's still a 3 finger gap...that's what I have atm,3 fingers at the rear and 1 at the front.The front is great,the rear.....I would love to have:

* a 1 finger gap at the rear too
* It a little firmer
* Still legal

It looks like Jase knows some coils that fall in that bracket - WOOT WOOT!!!
