Ok, I have some quick questions about lowering my 95 sho. First why is everyone only cutting -1 off the front springs? Why wouldn't you cut all four to make the car sit level? Is it because the rear coils have two smaller coils on the top and bottom? Can you cut more than -1 like maybe -1 1/2? im going to be running B&G springs witch im planning to cut with KYB struts front to rear. what are my options? I believe id need to talk to matasho because that is exactly the height i would like my car to be.

People usually only cut the front springs because in most cases the rear is low enough without cutting the lowering springs.

Here's one of my old SHOs that had Eibachs in the front and stock rear suspension, still lower in the rear. In some cases lowering springs will actually raise the rear because the stock springs sag with time.

Experiencing some poke up front. After I cut the front coils I'm gonna try to tuck it with some camber.

i tried again.... why is the website converting them to thumbnails???? they are 300 kb now there 13???

Christian, you need to upload your pics on a hosting site like photobucket or flickr. When you upload the pics you will then get a few different codes to use for various applications. You want to copy the code the starts with and then post it here. Once you paste the code and submit your reply the pic will be displayed full size.

BTW - i love when you post pics of your car! How is that motor coming?

when i go to the upload from url..... still same ********!

This is your problem. You do not upload anything to the forum. Just copy the code from the pic you want to post on photobucket and then paste it here. Copy the next [IMG] code from the next pic and then paste it here.

It will look like that when you paste it but the pic will show up once you submit your reply.

ground control coil overs modified , spring rates and heaights changed 3 times till i found what i like , used sho source and ground control upper solid strut mounts up front , i used partial pieces from sho source kit in the rears , koni adjustable inserts and modified the front struts to get anothewr 3/4 of an inch more travel before bottoming out ..

the ground control kit came with 420 lbs fronts , and 330 i think in the rears.. i have replaced with 650 lbs in front and 450lbs in the rear! its tight and hard the way i like it lol ! and i also have frame connectors along with front and rear strut brace bars and h brace and tube lower arms in rear and all new busnings all round! car corners like it has magnets holding it to the road! i love it!
