[QUOTE=Royal_T;7394014]Ok so allot of people keep on asking me "how does my under carriage look for being that low." So today I took some pics of the Damage that has taken place, which isn't that much. So don't be scared people dump that **** out of your ride...lol..

soo royal T..im assuming that your riding your shocks right?? because if you max out the bottom piece (turning it up) and having the coils pre-loaded the drop wouldnt be any thing compared to your drop right?? i've asked several dropped Z with stance and no one has answered my question..well except fatboy.

Ok let me get what you are saying. You are saying that if you max out the bottom piece and having the coils pre-loaded you will not be able to drop your car as low as mine unless you are riding the shocks? correct?

Well the funny thing is that I did not even know the bottom peace screwed up, until Z33allme and I installed his. I got mine used so I'm guessing he had them already screwed all the way up I just missed with the middle section to get my ride hight the way it is. Also On the fronts I did not pre-load the coils. If that is riding the shocks then yes I am.

If you could please explain to me what Riding the Shocks mean and then I probably can answers your question better. Sorry for the dumb question

:
All the things you said is pretty right. Im just wondering how you guys dropped it soo low w/o riding the shocks. Oh and riding the shocks would be, When messing with the coils and not having them pre-loaded (coils are just loose when car is lifted in the air) once you drop the car, the shocks would compress down until it reaches the coils but it depends on how low your setup is. So, you might be compressing half your shocks from the looks of your drop, but dont take my word for it. Also with that setup, the shock life might be shorter. Another choice would be if stance offered/produced shorter shock struts soo we can have the coils pre-loaded and the only thing to adjust is the bottom piece of the suspension. So, yea thanks for answering my question!

btw: nice Z!! hopefully soon i'll be on here posting some pictures!

I pretty much figured that is what you meant. Yea my fronts are not pre-loaded. I'm going to take them off though and spend the bottom position up and pre-load the springs, but if it is not were I want it I will def put it back to the way I have it now.

my guess would be 10 with -5mm front and rear 11 -5mm judging from the rear height and pokage? probably somewhere along those lines.. . but this is definitely the best wheel in their kranze lineup.

-x offsets must be off the charts. Mr.Executive told us about this setup, very nice BTW. One of the first Z33's with proper fitment to come out of H-Town.
