I was curious as to who has them. If you have the GC's, how much of a drop do you have in the front & rear?

What kind of struts & shocks are you using?

Any problems w/ bottoming out (i know i do)?

What is the proper way to measure your drop?

BTW-I have teh siffer of the 2 set-up. I have the Eibachs in mine. What i ahve realized is that this isnt a great setup for NJ roads & damn bouncy and is after each bump, the car seems like it has hydrolics going up and down. Let me know your experiences and ideas. Thanks.

 

Bump

 

I have GC's, dropped all the way up front and the back is even with the front. About 3.5" all around. I have Tokicos. Bottom out all the time because I'm riding on bumpstop and the shocks suck. The ride isn't too bad, but the shocks are so underdamped when I hit a big bump, it just hydraulics like you're saying.

I got a sponsorship deal with KYB, so hopefully when they get me my AGX's, it will help the bouncing. That or I just have to get true coilovers.

The proper way to measure a drop is to line up a stock car and your car. Then measure to something you both have (i.e. to the edge of bumper lenses). I'm not sure how many turns equals an inch...

I bottom out if I hit REALLY huge bumps.

 

I respectfully disagree. Not all cars sit the same height even with the same equipment. The way that I measured my drop was before and after the spring install. I don't have GC's but you can find a reference point on the vehicle (I used the fenderwell) and measure at that exact point before and after you've made the adjustments. Comparing to another car may give you the same measurements but then it can also give you false measurements. Just trying to help.

 

This is true, but I don't think he'll reinstall his stock setup just to measure his drop. How does he measure his drop without changing back to his old setup?

 

True but if he wants to monitor his adjustments from here on out he can use my procedure.
