Post your DROP specs..
 
Please post your drop specs here.

What kind Spring/Coilover?
Drop amount front/rear

That way if someone looking for lower their car, he will have quick reference. I am planning to drop my TL too later. :D

Thanks.

Red Hot TL 04-09-2002 05:53 PM

H&R Sport Springs
1.75 front, 1.5 back

love it, nice amount of drop.

CKacura 04-09-2002 06:05 PM

Same here 1.7 front, 1.5 rear H&R sports springs. However, i am thinking about replacing them with coilover.

songoku 04-09-2002 06:19 PM

I see Tim has Comptech Spring for CL's 1.5/1.0 drop. Does anyone know if that'll fit on TL?

I want to lower little bit, not SLAMMED.

dimsumo 04-09-2002 06:27 PM

Will H&R stage 2 work with OEM bodykit and stock rims?

Edub-TL 04-09-2002 06:28 PM

I think the ones for the CL are the same for the TL..

since our cars a bit heavier, we have more of a drop from it..

I measured it before and after I got them on my car..

F = 1.75
R = 1.5

I have H&R Sport springs F=1.75 R=1.50, I like the drop. There isn't much gap at all from the tires to the fenders.

But planning on dropping my TL-S a little lower because I want to completely kill the gap. Maybe H&R Race springs (drops F=2.2 R=1.75) or coilovers. I have a OEM bodykit so I'm still deciding....

songoku 04-10-2002 12:25 PM

Most of members have H&R, anyone with comptech??

Closer 04-10-2002 12:46 PM

comptech.
quoted 1.25 front/1.0 rear.

Hey Paul, I have the H&R race springs. No wheel gap what so ever! :wow: As Evo says, front 2.2" drop, rear 1.75"

Evo, if you want lower, race springs will do it. But be prepared for a more bumpier ride. However, cornering is like your on rails! :D Just awesome.

songoku 04-10-2002 03:05 PM

Thanks Pat,

I am thinking about lowering just little bit, like an inch. So H&R sports or comptech will do.

acuratly2k 04-10-2002 04:05 PM

Closer; nice ride

What type of wheel are those? size & offset What size is the tire? Is it rubbing?

Davediego 04-21-2002 03:42 PM

I got Comptech's and they lowered 1.75 in the front and 1.5 in the rear. I also got slightly lower profile tires. Very happy with the look of my drop, definitely can't go any lower where I live tho, way too many dips into shopping places/driveways. I bottom out at least once per month :( but thankfully so far ive only scraped underneath the car, nothing visible. Damned cheap San Diego city council

Closer 04-22-2002 11:36 AM

Thanks guys.
But I gotta say... you guys with coil overs are making me DROOL...
man those look nice. :wow:

Must keep telling myself... spending money = :nono:

nick79 04-24-2002 10:51 AM

why do people drop the front more?

fahoumh 04-24-2002 11:22 AM

some springs, like Comptech's, drop lower in the front...as for ppl w/ coilovers, I don't know. Does "raking" have any performance benefits or is it just for looks?:confused:
