Looks great, it can never be too low. Looks more aggresive.

 

pretty drop to me!

 

That is one of the nicest looking cars I have ever seen.. be it a Porsche or a Ferrari, she is beautiful.

Man it's just perfect...did you set up the standard suspension?

 

I think it looks great. Just as long as you don't have any issues with scraping. Be careful!!

 

Thanks for the kind words. To answer a few questions, the adjustment was made with the standard suspension and does not seem to compromise the handling at all. Having said that, I put about 200km on the car today through some city roads and backroads and am finding it a touch too low.

I think the suspension has settled a bit as well and has come down even further. I'm going to raise it up 5-7mm or so to get a bit more clearance. This should bring the ride height to the mid-point from what the car came with to what I have at this time. The overall drop from stock will end up being ~8-10mm.

 

looks perfect, if it handles better then stock that is amazing in stock trim!!

 

What made you feel that way? Did it rub? scrape? or just not drive well?

 

Hey there MB,

The problem is the front lip just scrapes on everything even when going at an angle as well as large dips in the road. I had a VERY low 993 Turbo so am familiar with how to drive a low car, but the GT3 front lip would just catch on the slightest incline. I videotaped it scraping and realized it only needed another 1/4" or so to clear the problem slopes.

I also found that the car looked kinda funny with this bodystyle being so long and with my car being so low, it made the car look awkward. I just had it raised about 5mm today so the total drop is now ~8mm front and rear and the car looks perfect. Using the factory measuring points, the car is now 100mm and 125mm. Stock is 108mm and 133mm. Fender height is tough to measure and a bit erratic, but after the changes, the front is a touch above 25.5" and the rear is a hair above 26".

Hope this helps, if I were you, I'd save the hassle and just go for a 8mm drop after setting the car to factory specs. I think you'll be happy.

 

Incredible ride you have there! Guards red is a great colour.

btw, this is the first time I have looked at a picture on this site and seen familiar TO sights in the background, nice.

 

Fair enough, I too am use to low cars, I do not mind scraping, but i do not want it to scrape everywhere. I will take it into consideration and not lower mine as low as yours.

You do not happen to have new pictures with it lowered do you? Just to see the difference?

Thanks for the help!

 

I'll take some tomorrow after washing the car (it's filthy right now). Something to keep in mind is to ensure you set the base height at the factory setting. Some cars are higher than spec, some are bang-on and some are lower. If you want the spec and how to measure it, PM your email address and I'll send the pdf.

 

Very nice!

 

That's like a girl asking "are my ***** too big?".

 

It looks perfect :]
Nice drop
