Lowered today

[Spro]

Just got back from the shop. Car looks better but the drop is a little less then what I expected. Do these springs settle at all after a while or what? (sportlines) Car rides different and the suspension is pretty stiff. Here I included some before and after pics. The rain was starting so I wasnt able to wash the car and get better pictures but maybe I will get a chance tomorrow. Well anyway, what do you guys think?

I sure hope it drops a little more but if not no biggie.
Yes I did use the stock isolators.

Odd, looks like the front barely even dropped. Car looks good though

You sure those are the correct springs? Sportlines are slammed.

 

[scupking]

Wow what did it drop like .5 or something? I have a much bigger drop with my FRPP B springs.

She is even lower now that they have settled.

Yeah they are the right springs. I thought it would be lower too. The front came down 1 inch.

Scupking.... How long did it take for yours to settle.

Maybe a month if that.

Judging by your pics at least you did things the right way by getting CC plates & a bumpsteer kit...Kudos ...It does look as if it should have dropped more though, but that is the thing I hate about sportlines the most, the inconsistency from car to car. Some look slammed, others look like they were lowered with a pro kit... Thats why Im glad Im picking up a used set, so they will already be broke in....

Car looks good though BTW...

ay scupking, how do you clean your rear window with that thing on? cause i was thinkin of getting one of those, but then i was thinkin, how the hell do i clean it.

 

[superstang01]

those look more like prokit springs....that drop is almost identical to mine!

 

[fudleyd]

Looks good man, and will look even better in a month or two!

 

[bullitt453]

It'll definitely drop more. If you still aren't happy with the look, just pull an iso out of each corner.

 

[streethorse]

Looks great, love that color, seems like Ive seen that car before. Mine dropped
about 1 eighth inch more after a month or so.

Mine did the same thing yours is doing when i first put my sportlines in. I was pi$$ed cause it didn't look like the car dropped at all.. but then when they started to settle i noticed it gettting lower and lower.. you'll get the drop your looking for, it'll just take time.. and just like bullit453 said, if it's still not low enough, take an iso out..
Nice job with the CC kit and Bumpsteer.. how does it handle with the bumpsteer?
The car looks great though!

It handles real good. The steering wheel is tight and the suspension feels pretty stiff. Big difference from stock. Hopefully it will drop a little more but anything is better then the stock 4x4 look.

wow i would have expected more dramatic drop on a gt. the mach look low 15 min after I put my sportlines on, even more so now they have settled for 2 1/2 weeks. Though I did leave the isos out.
