Hey guys
I have a set of Tein Super streets on my 34gt and i've set them to the lowest possible setting, but i want a bit more low at the rear. Is there anyway to do that other than purchasing a new set of coilovers? I've heard BC can go pretty low.
My coilovers are about 10K km's old. Is it worth selling em off and buying BC?
Pictures would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Attached is a picture of my car now!

That is already low as f**k!

Any lower and youll start ripping your exhaust on everything

+1 My mind set use to be the lower the better. But then i got my skyline, and honestly slamming it takes the fun out of the car. Its pleanty low! But if you want to buy new one, I'll take those Tein ones off your hands ;)

It is low, but not thaaaat low..

Could you remove the bottom locking collar from the rear coilovers? Might give you an extra 5-8mm or so.

How would i go about removing the bottom collar?

Serious..?!

You'd change to a set of BC's over Tein Super Streets just for more lows..?

It looks good as it is and I'd just leave it.

I'm so so happy with the ride quality, just that wheel and body gap(specifically at the rear) bugs me haha.

It's not low at all. Looks like it's still legal. A better option for you though would be to buy a front diffuser, side skirt add ons, and rear pods.

It will give you a lower appearance without having to change coilovers or lose handling performance

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
