I think I'm about to start focusing on the k24 at this point. Seems like a better platform. The gtp runs 13's and I'm happy with that for an automatic car.
 
Re: BLACKxFLAGx Getting Lower *****es

some terrible quick pics of the front in terrible lightning.

-About 1/2" from bottom thread.
-.5 finger gap
-rides 10x's better than sscs even at this low



 


Re: BLACKxFLAGx Getting Lower *****es

so im too lazy to read i know you have coils but did you make your own or get zzp's
 
Re: BLACKxFLAGx Getting Lower *****es

intense, i wouldn't recommend them though. im almost maxed out. they will BARELY tuck tire, if that.
 


Re: BLACKxFLAGx Getting Lower *****es

i hope you are aware that you can droop the springs (you know, not run them with any preload and completely loose when the wheels are off the ground)....right?

my rears come unseated because they aren't tight, no preload. drop them ****ers.

Re: BLACKxFLAGx Getting Lower *****es

are the springs fully seated at all times, even at full droop? if so...you're not low enough.
 


Re: BLACKxFLAGx Getting Lower *****es

What your missing is that they are half coilovers. You can only spin from the bottom. When you lower them the springs sag. Right now im about 3" from the perch! This is the way all gp coilovers are.
Basically gr-2s with coilover bottoms smashed into them. No two way adjustment.
 
Re: BLACKxFLAGx Getting Lower *****es

mine are that same way, haha. i just let the springs move around so i can be low.
