i have a 95 gsr...i'm thinking about dropping it 2 inches but i don't know how low would that be..the car is my daily driven cars and i have to be making it over those speed bumps at school my car is stock height right now so can anyone give me an idea on how low 2 inch drop is? thank

 

you should dump it!! i daily drive with my integra dumped...its not that bad lol

 

dump it

 

ive got mine droped like 1.5 in the front and 1.2 in the back on tein basic coilovers with 17's. i love it. it looks really good and i can go over speed bumbs without going sideways.

 

Dumping your car is bad in every possible, conceivable way except for looks, and that's if you even like the way they look (I don't...). A 2" drop is good, and you shouldn't have any problems going over speed bumps if you have decently stiff springs.

Search around in the suspension forum just to look at different peoples' setups and see what you like.

 

slam that bytch on some function and forms

 

you shoud at least go 3" if you're not planning on being dumped!

 

i'm dropped 2" all the way around on tokico springs and struts, with 15" rims and 205/50 tires, it doesn't tuck tires but the gapping is about a fingers width.. honestly i want lower, probably when this suspension is worn i will go with skunk2 coilover setup so i can tuck tires some.. just looks better like that to me, but with my current setup speed bumps are ok, but i have to hit inclines at an angle, or else you will have a big flat spot on the bottom of your header like i do...

 

Check out my Cardomain or the link below in my sig...that's my car and I'm dropped about 2.7" front 2.4ish" rear, just for reference.

 

Finger gap up front, flush in back. Anything lower and you're borderline ricing it.

 

slam it all the way.....how is dropping ya car to the dick ricing it...

 

however low you wanna go. think about the condition of the roads you will be driving on. you don't want it too low, and cause you more harm than good.

 

You should be fine with a 2" drop but depending on the speed bump size. But a little angle attack shouldn't be too much trouble. You just need to learn how to drive with the drop.

 

Thank you!

 

x2. Mines lowered about 3 inches all around, and after the first few times of bottoming it out i learned the secret to speed bumps/driveways... go slow

 

Since you're in cali i say drop it to the legal minimum heigh. Still looks nice but not to low to the point where you get hassled by cops.

 

Best post, Cali restrictions are RETARDED.

 

daily scraping

 

thanks alot guys for the tips i'm planning on dropping my car 2 inches all around on some skunk2 lowering springs that i found for a bill thanks

 

yeah, I bet! Your suspention is probbably crapping out already...Don't listen to this guy don't dump your car...You will kill all your suspention components this way...try like .5 or .75 drop, keep it safe! Besides cars that are that low, handle like $hit!

 

because slamming serves ZERO purpose other than looks. Ride is crap, handling is crap.

 

I switch up all the time from riding slammed to just low. When slammed, the handling really is crap tho, the ride wasn't that bad. I agree with PatrickGSR, slamming your ride is mostly for looks.


looks good, but handles like ****

 

Mines dropped 2" all the way around on sk2 springs. I love it, still rides and handles great, looks good, and I don't have any problems with speed bumps!

 

You don't do much technical reading do you? lol. Stick to the appearance forum

 

lol^

many argue that integras look best dropped as low as possible(within reason) i happen to agree.. do a proper suspension and it will handle fine
