Mine has been lowered aprox 2-2&1/2 inches, the rear of the side skirt is the lowest part of the car and thats 120mm off the ground, the front bar is okay, just have to be a little carefull, mine doesnt hit many driveways but when i put 2-3 people in the back it comes down another 2 inches then some times my exhuast hits, okay you now now my secret for when i go cruising, throw two people in the back and it looks 2-3 inchs more PHAT in the rear when the ass is scrapping :D :D :D :D

i've got king springs (25-30mm about) all round - it doesnt scrape on anything on the bottom of the car.

however, the only thing you need to worry about with the vr-x kit, is that if you up to bigger rims with 235+ tyres, the tyre will sit underneath the wheel arch flare. when you hit a big bump when cornering it will hit the bottom of the wheel arch flare (i've lost a clip already :redface: ).

Great purchase mate well done. Manual, Auto or Trippy???

I have a Manual 02 VRX and it's been lowered with pedders Sportys Ryder i have a bit of trouble sometimes going in driveways and over speed humps but as long as you are carefull you should have no probs mate, heres a pic of what it it will look like for ya.

cheers

its a MANUAL :D

Oooh interesting - i guess an important part of lowering is getting much stiffer shocks so it doesnt bounce down and hit?

My subs may even drop my backend a little when i get around to installing them - [here they are in my old skyline] (http://presstec.net/~jake/pics/R31_Skyline_1990/2004-10-18/small/IMG_0070.jpg)

Hmmmm

SGIC has a max of 30mm lowering im told, has anyone got any side pictures of 30mm drops?
*SEARCHES*

Greetings All.

Harder shocks, and PolyUthrane suspension bushes should stop you from bottoming out as much...not to mention harder springs...

*SEARCHES*My VRX is lowered 30mm all around.

Note: My subs make the rear sit a bit lower, a full tank of fuel makes it sit even lower! Then when I fill the car with friends, it sits really low!

Sorry about the quality of the last two pics, they were taken with my phone.

Here are some pictures:

Thanks for the piccies! suweeet cars :D



I am just pondering, SGIC said i can lower it 30mm... so thats 30mm lower than what it is! not 30mm lowered magna springs right? - because VR-X came out 10-15mm lower? (please correct me if im wrong!)


so that would mean i can purchase 45mm lowered MAGNA/VERADA springs :D!!!!!
which drops me 30mm lower than what it already is :bowrofl:
right?! wooo!


I wonder how a whiteline package will go *googles*
