hey guys ive been thinking of putting in ultra lows in my magna for a while now, i hav lows all round but it aint lowe enough, ive serched for pics but cant find anythind has any ones got ultras thats could tell me pros and cons and does anyone hav a pic of how low it will sit?? all help much apreciated

the reason being why you cant find anything on ultralows is cause no one has them and also no one sells them as a off the shelf thing
you can get them custom made however, kmac will make them to any size you want, but you might need shorter shocks
or theres the other option which is buying a set of coilovers

yeh true no one seels them off the shelf cos u hav to specially order them from bursons or anyother place like that i dont wanna go custom made cos to exspensive and i just dont like coilover i reckon there pretty dodgey, so no one at all has them?

how is coilovers 'dodgy'?? and unless you wanna go illegal ride height, superlows are the lowest u can go

anything lower and you'll most likely scrape on any raised bit of road lol

running superlows on the rada, so stuff all bodykit, and it sits about 110mm off the road, give or take... 10mm off legal

any lower and i'd be looking at coilovers, otherwise ride quality will severely suffer

Explain why you think coilovers are dodgey? They aren't in performance cars for budget cutting, they are expensive for a reason. They are one of the best setups you can get.

:nuts:

kmac custom springs are only around $300-$400

as said before, there is no such thing as an ultra low spring for the magna/verada.

if you don't want coilovers cause they are "dodgy", and you don't wanna fork out the cash for proper custom springs,

either cut or compress your current springs if money is an issue

which sounds dodgier??? :nuts:

i just dont like coilovers a mate of mine had them in his car and they ******ed up and ended up costing more money and they look weak as piss, and my lows hav already got a coil cut off, and ive borrowed my mates AU falcoon which has ultra lows in it and it dosnt scrape on anything except for steep drive ways and large speed bu,mps when the car is full including a full boot.

theres an easy solution that might appeal to you

buy two Kings Lows

cut em in half

now youve got a set of ultra lows!

Maybe they were cheap coilovers?

omfg... :nuts: explain "look weak as piss"?

what sort of car does your mate have, and what brand of coilovers did he get?

why do you think coilovers cost so much more than just springs? they are the whole package (springs and shocks). good ones are fully/partially adjustable (lower spec are height only, and then higher spec are height/damper/bound/rebound/spring rate). if you're going to do something, do it right.

also, you cant compare ultra lows in your mates falcon, to ultra lows in a magna.

and my lows hav already got a coil cut off, and ive borrowed my mates AU falcoon which has ultra lows in it and it dosnt scrape on anything except for steep drive ways and large speed bu,mps when the car is full including a full boot.
Well you are already half way there, why not just take the springs out all together and ride on bump stops??? And yeah comparing an AU falcon to a magna is chalk and cheese when it comes to lowering

Well if your mate did not get springs of a friggin push bike then they may have been ok

I know and have seens Sam's coil overs and these are a sensational set up, nothing dodgy there.

You state you ahve already "cut" a coil off and you are worried about dodgy and then you compare an AU to a Magna, might as well compare a Ferrari to an Hummer for that matter:nuts:


The 2 dodgy things about this thread are
a/ should have been in the third gen section
b/ OP wants to go lower than safe to do on a std set up for little cash out!@
