Well at INJEKTD in Canberra theyre $400 installed to any custom height i want..

I 'heard' you ring up and tell them how low you want it, and they make them and send them to your door for $354

If you want performance springs probably arnt the best i'd be going a whiteline kit, but because i want looks im going for just springs, though i've already had a complete new set of suspension go in (pedders) so it probably wont be 'too' bad

im mainly going for looks. Ive got something aftermarket at the moment for springs/shocks, but my ass end is just sitting a little too high for my liking. I want to be able to sit as far low as I possibly can (but still drivable). Im only after rears as my fronts are already pretty low

Yeh, id probably want to go with the super lows. The springs ive got on there at the moment are equivelent to lows i think. I want to get as low as possible and only drive my car rarely on weekends so getting defected shouldnt be that much of a problem, touch wood.

So no ones got super low springs on their car??

Sounds like they use the trick of heating the springs up and then compress to suit.

nah mate, k mac in sydney make them, i've got the complete set sitting here at home...

i've got a picture of my car with just the rears in, this is lowered 3.75" with kmac springs on pedders comfort shocks.

Well, ive got a set of super low springs that apparently have been 'cut' even more so im a bit hesitant to put them in in case they are dangerously low.

In saying that, LO_R33's car looks low, but i think id prefer to have about another inch or inch and a half lower than that. Am i crazy to want that?

My cars dropped 3.75" and i could have probably lowered it 5" but your suspension has NO travel then... and besides, thats taken on a hill.. when its on the flat its pretty damn low:) the reason i ordered Kmac insted of king springs is because their super lows lower the car 35mm... mine lowered it 95mm so you can see the difference.. I wouldnt go much less then what its at as i get no rubbing, and the suspension is still stiff but not that bad.. any lower your crazy as my camber is bad enough as it is..

Dayne

Ok guys i'll post the ONLY other photo i have of my car lowered... my cars in the painters and wont be back for atleast another week.. so im unable to get pics until then (this is for all the people who pm'd me)

Dayne

cheers for that buddy.. id like to see pics of it from different angles if you wouldnt mind when you get it back. Also.. did you install the springs yourself.. and if so.. how hard was it?

Cheers

Yeah, me and 2 mates did it, took us about 1.5 hours for the rears, was really easy... the night before we spent about 3hours trying to figure it out and stuff... then we took one out and did it wrong.

For my car i had to take out the rear set + parcel shelf thats why it took a bit longer.

I'll get some pics up asap when i get it back

    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
