PICS of lowered MSPs

[SupaMSP]

i have Tien's

I really dont see a difference in handling compared to the stock shocks.

But thats my .02 cents

How bad does your camber go off from lowering with these cars?

i asked about camber as well, seems no one wants to answer the question? im either gettin gc or skunk2....

camber shouldn't be a problem with any of the springs, coilsleeves may cause a problem if you drop the car more than 2"

i should of been more specific...im planin to get skunk2 or gc coilovers....on the front a lil more then a 2in drop rear only a 1in.....i can get camber plates for the front from gc if needed, but what about the rear?

The front will definately need a camber kit with a low drop. I doubt you'll see 2" though.
This is AS LOW as the Skunk2 coilovers will go in the front. It rides very rough and bouncy. That's why I took mine out.

The rears will drop good, and shouldn't have a camber issue. I put my coilovers on with about 3,000 miles on my car. By the time I hit 12,000 miles, I had to replace the 2 front tires. I had no camber kit. Please, take some advice from someone that raveled down that road...If you are lowering your car SOLELY for looks, then go for it. But if you want a SAFE, good handling car to race around with, then coilovers are not the way to go with the stock struts. Either get the JIC/TEIN coilovers, or stick with springs. Either way, you will get a nice drop, and won't sacrifice ride quality.

EDIT:Here's a good comparison...The pic I posted is the bad coilovers. The pic in my sig is the Spool springs. The drop is identical, but the actual springs ride waaay smoother...

thank you for answerin my question... i was lookin at tein or jic, i had jic flt-a2s on my old 240sx and luved them, but i also had full camber/caster/toe adjustment on my 240 as well but i bought my msp cus the commute in my 240 suxed hiazzz so i guess ill get some springs....whats the lowest drop with springs? sportlines? or spool? the spool ones look pretty low

 

[low_psi]

the SPOOL's are 2"FR and the Sportlines are 1.8"FR
