Re: lowering question (spray_bombed)
1.75 will take away a good amount of it, but not all of it. Normally, it looks only slightly lower, until you compare it back to what it really looked like stock and the fender cap that was there.
What size wheels are you running on it, tires?

Re: lowering question (spray_bombed)
invest in adjustable coils instead of guesstimating how low some springs claim to lower your car and you end up regretting it being too low or too high for your taste

he is right i orderd my springs although im happy with the drop id like it to be a little more. with the adjstable coils you can get what you want and if its to low just a few turns and your good

Re: lowering question (spray_bombed)
u mean 14 inch right..
if you do slam it, get new shocks or your stock ones will blow out like one of mines did.
i have a 96 hx aswell, "slammed" but not as dramatic as yall that are runnin 15's and 16's
i got 17's
