Lowered question???

[Jakewilliams]

I have 60mm lowering springs, fitted the rear ones as I had spare time, managed to get that done, front is still sitting on the standard everything, and rear is now lowered 60mm, but it's still sitting quite high (3 days after doing it) (doing front on Saturday) my question is this: will it go lower on the back when I do the front? Because I'm a bit disappointed with how high it is still even after lowering it BUT I have in my head that it will go to propper lows when I do the front? But it might not make a difference to the back. Thanks

Have you a pic? You want the rear to sit higher anyway mate. Only other thing if it's higher than it should is if the shocks are wrong

I'm running standard shocks at the moment if that could be why, and no its just gone dark

 

[imprezaworks]

Standard shocks will be fine. I've seen cars with none correct shocks run a lot higher than normal shocks

When i lower the front it might bring the back down then lol

Grab a pic when done mate

Grab a pic when done mate :smile:

This was 10 minutes after I put the springs on, so not at propper height, the front has dropped slightly more now looks good (back still sits high lol)

 

[Jakewilliams]

This is the back on 60mm springs

 

[imprezaworks]

You sure the springs are 60mm?

 

[LeeRS]

+60mm by the looks haha

 

[LeeRS]

You are parked half and half on the pavement though so its not an ideal level.

 

[Jakewilliams]

Yeah they're 100% 60mm lowering springs, (the car hasn't actually been driven yet so I'm assuming they're not set right yet)

 

[imprezaworks]

That was my thought but even in the pic the passanger rear should sit lower because of the drpp

Maybe it's the shocks being a none sport. Would sport shocks fit? Not clued up on 1.2's etc

 

[Jakewilliams]

I would imagine so yes, but I bought these on a budget, otherwise I was getting coilovers (next time I will always go coilovers) but if I got shocks it would end up being same price as coilovers so I'm not going to bother lol

 

[imprezaworks]

Yours a 1.2 or dci

 

[Jakewilliams]

1.2

 

[imprezaworks]

Can only assume it's the shocks or something

It might sort it's self out when the car has a good run out

Probably doesn't look as low because my Rotas are only 15's
